PLANK WORKOUT
Planks work you abs, arms and back, which makes it one of the best multitasking moves. Varying a basic plank will work every part of your body.
Moves:

> Elbow Plank with Donkey Kick
-From an elbow plank, bend one knee 90 degrees, keeping foot flexed and not moving your pelvis.
> Side Plank Leg Lift
-Place on elbow on the ground, and raise opposite leg higher than your hip
-Do 3 sets of 15-20 reps on each side
> Circling Plank
-Start in an elbow plank on an exercise ball, keep body still and use arms to roll the ball in smal circles.
-Do 3 sets of 5 circle in each direction.
>Easy Knee Tuck Crunches
-Start in a plank with shins on the ball, then pull knees toward your chest, then push back out.
- Do 3 sets of 10-20 crunches.
>Table Top Lift
-Start in a table top, then lower your hips and straighten your legs so that your hips are hovering the floor (between your wrists).

>Two Point Plank
