An upper body and core strength pair working chest, shoulders, triceps, and deep stabilizers. Perfect for anyone who wants more from their plank time.
You'll start with push-ups to fatigue your chest and arms, then stay in that high plank position and add shoulder taps. Lifting one hand at a time forces your core to fight rotation – it's harder than it looks, especially after the push-ups have already worn you down.
Shoulder taps are an anti-rotation exercise, training your core to stay stable under shifting loads. Research links this kind of stability work to better posture and reduced lower back strain, making it practical beyond just fitness.
