Plank to Down Dog


ree

Engages the core, shoulders, and hamstrings while promoting flexibility and stability through a dynamic plank-to-downward dog movement.

HOW TO PERFORM:  

  • Begin in a high plank position with hands under shoulders and body in a straight line.

  • Press back through your hands, lifting your hips and forming an inverted "V" shape (downward dog), keeping your heels reaching toward the ground.

  • Lower back into the plank position, maintaining a straight line from head to heels.


PRO TIPS:

  •  Imagine pushing your hands away from your feet (without moving them) as you rise into down dog, this will help engage lats and core, giving you more lift and control. 


MODIFICATION:

  • Have knees down for the plank position and then push your hips back towards heels before lifting them into downward dog.
