Plank Push-ups!

Begin in plank position, the up phase of a push-up with your hands flat on the floor beneath your shoulders. From here, lower your body and with your core strength, press back up, one (1) push-up. Pause at the top and lift your left hand off the floor with your arm extended out to side. Hold here and lift your right foot off the floor. Lower your hand and foot back to the floor, do another push-up and repeat with opposite hand and foot. Continue, alternating sides for 8-12 repetitions.

Please remember...do not allow your stomach to sag to the floor, maintain your core strength, keep your shoulders down away from your ears and don’t forget to breathe! Have fun!!
