The side plank is a great core exercise as it forces the lateral stabilisers of the body like the oblique’s and glutes to work hard to maintain stability and alignment through the body. When you swap sides it will also highlight any deficiencies or weaknesses that may be present from side to side. You can start with the standard variation or even from the knees to begin with and progress to harder variations like the ‘star’ option shown later in the video. Exercise Suitability: Beginners: ✔️ Advanced: ✔️ What are the key technique points?
