Plank Work Outs
Fashion Week is here! I have been hitting the gym all week and preparing for my strut down the runway. I will be walking in a show Saturday night at the Lincoln Center! I’m really excited but really nervous. Pray for me! These exercises below have been great workouts. I have been trying to focus my work outs around my core. I am also loving all of the Jillian Michaels work out dvds. I have been doing my cardio in the morning and Jillian Michael DVD’s at night. These exercises really work.
Push- Up into unstable plank
Come into push-up position with feet hip-width apart, hands directly under shoulders, and body in straight line from head to heels.
Inhale and bend elbows to lower body toward the floor. Exhale and explode back up, raising left arm and right leg at top of a push-up so they’re parallel. Repeat on opposite side: that’s 1 rep. Do 10 reps.
Leg Kick into single leg pike press
Start on all fours, hands and knees shoulder width, toes tucked.
Lift hips to come into downward dog; lift right leg up and back.
Move body forward and down into plank with leg raised; bend right knee.
Bring it forward toward chest, out to side, then forward to meet right elbow.
Straightn leg, return to downward dog; that’s 1 rep. Do 10 reps; switch sides and repeat.
Side planked crunch
Lie on left side with left hand on floor beneath left shoulder, right fingers behind head:let inside of right foot rest on floor in front of left foot.
Tighten abs: push into left hand to lift body so it forms a diagonal line from head to heels. Crunch forward and down, bringing right elbow to left elbow:return to starting position. Do 10 reps:switch sides and repeat.
I get her DVD’s at AMAZON.
