Tall Modified Side Plank With Isometric Hip Abduction

Side planks are an excellent exercise to strengthen the entire body, from the hips all the way up to the shoulders. However, not everyone can or should start with the traditional side plank. Also, there are so many variations and side plank progressions to target different body areas that who needs the traditional side plank!

The tall modified side plank is a nice alternative to the side plank and modified side plank for a few reasons. Sometimes this position feels better on the shoulder and collarbone region, also it makes the exercise less demanding on the core as the body is now oriented more vertical. However, with the arm extended and being further away from the ground, your balance will be challenged. This position can also put stress on the wrist, watch the video for tips and cues on hand position.

This exercise will still challenge the hip closer to the ground, but adding the isometric leg lift of the top leg will challenge both sides! After you get your balance figured out, focus on the glute burn!
