How To Do Plank Rows Correctly And Safely

Many AB EXERCISES exist, but the Plank Row is one of our favorites. It significantly increases the difficulty of the PLANK, while incorporating upper body rotation and balance.

BENEFITS OF THE PLANK ROW

- Effectively teaches core stabilization by strengthening the abdominal muscles’ ability to resist spinal extension.

MUSCLES WORKED DURING THE PLANK ROW

- Rectus Abdominus - Transverse Abdominus - Obliques - Glutes - Upper Back - Shoulders  

PERFORMING THE PLANK ROW

- Select two light dumbbells and place them on the floor in a vertical orientation, roughly shoulder width apart - Squat down and grip the dumbbells without picking them up

– Assume a Push-Up position, with your elbows locked out, while still maintaining your grip on the weight – Set your feet at a stance wider than shoulder width for balance
