LauraMak Plank Series PicCheck out the video of an easy and effective – glutes, shoulders, and core exercise. It combines the strength of yoga, stimulates the core and energizes the entire body.

Begin in the push-up position, or “Plank pose”. Hold the beginning pose for about 3-5 deep breaths. Press back into downward dog. Pause and hold for a few breaths.

Move forward into the plank pose. Lift the left foot off the ground about 6 inches while keeping the body straight and the abs pulled in towards the spine. Pull the heel into the glutes. With a straight leg, lift it up again about 8 inches this time.LauraMak Plank Series Lift

Place the foot back to the ground and repeat on the other side.

Try this exercise series 8-12 times on each side. Take a 30 second pause in between sets and repeat three times.
