Get ready to work your ab muscles and rev-up that heart rate with this NBA basketball teams’ favorite plank variation.

The Move: The Caterpillar Plank

You’ll Need: a mat (optional)

 

How to Do It: Start in an upright athletic stance. Squat down.

 

Place palms on the floor. Slowly walk your hands forward keeping your hips from sagging and your core TIGHT,

 

until you reach a full plank position. When you’ve reached your furthest point without breaking form,

 

SLOWLY walk your hands back up to beginning position.Slowly stand up, stacking one vertebra at a time until right. That’s one. Repeat for 6-10 reps. Aim for 3 sets a few times a week.
