Reverse Plank with Leg Lift

• Push your hands and feet into the ground, lifting your hips off the floor until your body forms a straight line from your head to your heels, this is the reverse plank position.
• Hold this position, then slowly raise your right leg as high as you can without bending your knee.
• Lower your right leg back down and repeat the same movement with your left leg.
• Continue to alternate legs, all while maintaining the reverse plank position, for your desired number of repetitions.

• Engage Your Core: As you lift your body into the reverse plank position, make sure to engage your core. This means tightening your abdominal muscles, which will help to support your back and prevent strain. A common mistake is to rely too much on arm strength, which can lead to shoulder or wrist injuries.
• Controlled Movements: When lifting your leg, do it in a slow and controlled manner. This will not only engage your muscles more effectively, but also reduce the risk of injury. Avoid jerky or fast movements which can cause muscle strain.
• Keep Your Body Aligned: Throughout the exercise, make sure your body is in a straight line from your head to your heels. A common mistake
