06 PLANK TO DOWNWARD DOG

-

Targets: Hamstrings, core, upper body, legs Do: 10 reps

(a) Start in a high plank with your wrists directly below your shoulders and engage your core (imagine you’re pulling your navel into your spine).

(b) Push through your hands to lift your hips up towards the ceiling and create a V-shape with your body. Aim to lengthen the back of the legs by pushing your tailbone up, heels down and your stomach towards your thighs. Slowly reverse the move to come back into a high plank position and repeat.
