How to Do a Plank Move From the Forearms
- 1). Get on the floor, beginning on all fours, meaning hands and knees. Lean on the forearms instead of the hands, but remain on the knees.
- 2). Lift the knees off the ground so that only the toes remain on the floor. Keep the arms bent at the elbow and extended directly outward in front of the shoulders. You will be in a plank position at this point.
- 3). Lower the entire body down, like a push-up, but support the weight on the forearms. Hold for a two count and then lift back up using the forearms. Remember to keep the back straight and butt down.
- 4). Hold in the upward position for a two count and then repeat step 3.
- 5). Do eight reps at two counts and hold. Then switch to a one count; for example: down, up, down, up. After doing eight reps, hold in both the down and up positions for an eight count.
