Straight Arm Clock Plank

How To Do A Straight Arm Clock Plank Correctly

The Straight Arm Clock Plank is a challenging core strengthening exercise that’ll light up your abs and shoulders.

To get started:

1. Get into a push up position with your hands on the floor directly below your shoulders and your feet hip width apart.
2. Keeping your core continuously contracted, walk one arm out to the side to create a wide arm placement, then follow up with your opposite arm to bring your arms back to a shoulder width distance.
3. Ensure you keep your back flat and core strong as you continue walking your arms around in a circle, similar to the arms on a clock.
4. Complete one full circle of the body, then switch directions and repeat back to complete another full circle in the opposite direction.
