Alternating Knee-Tuck Plank

1. Begin in a standard plank position with your forearms on the ground and your body in a straight line from your shoulders to your ankles. Engage your core, glutes, and thighs to keep your body stable.

2. While maintaining the plank position, bring your right knee toward your right elbow without dropping your hips or arching your lower back. Aim to touch the elbow with the knee.

3. Return the right leg back to the starting plank position.

4. Repeat the same movement with your left knee toward your left elbow.

5. Continue to alternate knees, all while keeping your core engaged and your body in a straight line without letting your back sag or your hips pike upwards.

6. Maintain controlled breathing throughout the exercise and perform for the desired number of repetitions or for time.

Note: Ensure proper form throughout the exercise to avoid stress on the lower back and to maximize engagement of the abdominal muscles.
