Pilates Move of the Day - Planks and Tricep Circles!

Everyone loves a good plank challenge, amiright? But a ton of people (read that as “most people”) do them wrong. If you can go multiple minutes and you aren’t shaking all over, you might want to do this in front of a mirror, or video yourself, to check your form. This is a hard move and it’s a full body workout. Your deltoids, shoulders, abs, glutes, are ALL working! Most of all, you don’t want to be a camel (with your butt in the air), or a hammock (with a saggy bottom) so think of a board resting on your back and a glass of water resting on it — you do not want to move!

How long could you go? And what about those tricep circles? This was one of the hardest pilates moves for me to learn and I still think I can improve. But the burn is serious and this moves make me think about it all day long. Love does like that!
