Improve your Core Strength and Stability | The Suspended Front Plank

Suspended Front Plank

The Suspended Front Plank is an unstable static plank progression.  This exercise starts with the foot placement in the D-shaped foot cradle of the Jungle Gym XT suspension trainer with the heels facing the handles and the forearms are in contact with the floor. Position yourself so the handles are directly below the anchor of the attachment.

how to perform a Suspended Front Plank

Initiate the exercise by positioning your elbows directly under your shoulders. Extend your knees away from the ground, maintaining a neutral spine by forming a straight line from ear to ankle. Hold the position for the designated time.  Do not allow your shoulders to extend beyond your elbows. If you cannot maintain hip stability or neutral alignment, end the exercise. Start with 30 seconds and work up to 1 minute.
