Tabata Plank Hold

For today’s skill we’ll spend four minutes working on your best plank hold. The most important point of the plank is keeping your midline engaged rather than sagging or bending at the hips. You drop down to your elbows and/or knees you need to scale the movement.

Workout notes

If you have a jump rope tackle this workout with double or single unders. You can always do lateral hops as well but they don’t quite tax the arms like mountain climbers do. If you’re more comfortable with an abmat wrap up a towel and set it behind your low back.
