Flowin Side Plank One Leg Slide Tips

  1. Start by positioning yourself on your side, with your forearm resting on the flowin mat and your legs extended straight, one on top of the other. Align your body in a straight line from head to toe, engaging your core muscles to maintain stability.
  2. To engage your obliques and lower back effectively, focus on lifting your hips off the mat while maintaining the alignment of your body. Imagine creating a diagonal line from your head to your heels, with your core muscles working to support your weight.
  3. As you lift your hips, slide your top leg forward, extending it straight in front of you. This movement challenges your stability and forces your obliques and lower back to work harder to maintain balance. Keep your leg in line with your body, avoiding any twisting or rotation.
  4. Throughout the exercise, remember to breathe deeply and exhale as you lift your hips and slide your leg forward. This helps to engage your core muscles even more and provides a steady flow of oxygen to your working muscles, enhancing their endurance.
  5. Lastly, focus on maintaining a steady and controlled movement throughout the exercise. Avoid rushing or using momentum to slide your leg forward. Instead, concentrate on the quality of each repetition, feeling the burn in your obliques and lower back with every controlled movement.
