Planks are all the rage. Here’s how you can adapt the TRX to ramp up safely and smartly. You’ll sport the most stable and beautiful plank ever!
Trainer Alanna demonstrates how to get the benefit of planks without getting on the floor, using the TRX. Hold straps in each hand with feet and hands shoulder width a part. Slowly extend arms up
overhead maintaining body in a fixed plank position. Heels should come off the floor, pelvic tilt tight, and shoulder blades retracted to put focus on the trunk of the body. Standing further away from anchor point will lower intensity of exercise. Ramp up by starting farther and farther from the center anchor point.
You can train with Alanna at The Women’s Club, Missoula’s best gym. $99 for three sessions for new members. Email Alanna about your free consult.
