Core
Written By David Song

TALL PLANK SHOULDER TAP

This is a core endurance exercise that focuses on anti-rotation stability. Start in a tall plank position and hold a neutral spine. Place the feet hip distance apart and the hands shoulder distance apart. Without rotating through the torso, lift one hand up to tap the opposite shoulder. Be sure to keep the shoulders and hips squared forward while lifting the hand off of the floor.

Muscles Involved:

  • Core

    • Transverse Abdominis
