Side Plank Row

Exercise Overview

This is a core stability exercise for the lateral flexors (anti-lateral flexion) and rotators (anti-rotation) of the spine. Start in a side plank position by supporting the body with one elbow and leg. Keep the spine in neutral and be sure that the hips and shoulders are both squared forwards. Have a band anchored in front of you and grip the other end with your top hand. Pull the band with your hand to perform a row and maintain neutral spine alignment.
