Today we're slowing things down with a different kind of plank. We're targeting our adductors and abductors (outside thigh, inside thigh). These movements aren't super complex, but they are super effective. Then, just to put a stamp on everything, we'll end with some lateral movements.

Copenhagen Planks
These will be challenging, so pick an option where you're able to do at least 15 seconds at a time.

Options: perform on ankles/feet → perform on inside knee → place lower leg on the ground.
🤰 option to perform Cross-body Leg Lifts.

Clamshells
For this movement, it's more about control and less about how many you can do in one set.

Options: Side Plank Hip Lifts.

Lateral Step-overs
Pick an option that is challenging.

🤰 perform without weight to a low object.
No Equipment? Step laterally over an object that is about knee height.
Equipment: barbell, dumbell(s), kettlebell(s), backpack / box, stool, chair.

Lateral Lunge + High-pull
Pick an option that prioritizes range of motion first. We'd rather you go lighter and lower than heavier and only half way.

Options: only go as low as comfortable on the Lateral Lunge.
🤰 perform Single-arm Upright Rows, each side.
Equipment: single weight like dumbbell, kettlebell, backpack, or jug of water.
