Floor Side Tap Plank

1. Starting Position:

   • Begin in a plank position. Place your hands directly under your shoulders, with your arms straight.

   • Your body should be in a straight line from your head to your heels. Engage your core to maintain this position.

2. Foot Position:

   • Your feet should be hip-width apart. You can choose to have your feet together or slightly apart for better balance.

3. Movement:

   • Shift your weight onto your right hand and rotate your body to the left, lifting your left arm off the ground.

   • Extend your left arm straight up towards the ceiling, aiming to create a straight line from your left hand to your feet.

4. Tap:

   • While balanced on your right hand, lower your left arm and reach down to lightly tap the floor beside your left hip.

5. Return:

   • Raise your left arm back to the starting position (up towards the ceiling) as you shift your weight back onto both hands.

   • Ensure your body returns into the straight line of the plank.

6. Repeat:

   • Perform the tap for 10-15 repetitions, then switch to the other side.

Tips for Beginners:

• Start with a modified plank position by using your knees for support if needed.

• Focus on maintaining a strong core and proper alignment throughout the movement.

• Take your time and ensure you are comfortable before attempting to add speed to the taps.
