The Weekend Slim-Down

 

Reach-Through

Targets: Shoulders, abs, and obliques

  • Holding a dumbbell in right hand, start on floor in plank position: balancing on forearms and toes.
  • MAKE IT EASIER: Do exercise without dumbbell.
  • Lift right arm off floor as you rotate into a side plank: Turn torso to the right so that right shoulder points up, and pivot on toes so that sides of feet rest on floor, right foot in front of left (hips stacked).

Reach-Through

  • Extend right arm directly up, then lower dumbbell and rotate torso to left, tucking right arm under torso so that dumbbell extends past left side of rib cage. Return to side plank, extending right arm overhead.
  • Do 8 reps. Switch sides, repeat.
