Full Plank [Dumbbells]

The Full Plank on dumbbell handles elevates the hands, increases range of motion, and adds a stability challenge as you grip the handles throughout the hold.

Equipment: Dumbbells

1 / 9

Step-by-step instructions

1
Place two dumbbells on the floor shoulder-width apart. Grip the handles and start in a high plank position.
2
Your body should form a straight line from your head to your heels.
3
Keep your core tight, your glutes squeezed, and your hips level.
4
Grip the dumbbell handles firmly to maintain stability.
5
Hold for the prescribed time.

Notes

Make sure the dumbbells are on a non-slip surface. The elevated hand position slightly increases the range of motion and the grip challenge compared to a flat-palm plank.
