Exercise Description:
A banded plank march is a core exercise that involves holding a plank position while alternating between pulling each leg into chest. To perform this exercise, start by placing a resistance band around your ankles and getting into a plank position on the ground, with your hands positioned directly under your shoulders and your body forming a straight line from your head to your heels. Engage your abdominal muscles to maintain a stable plank position, then pull one foot into the chest and hold it for a moment before returning it to the starting position. Repeat the movement with the opposite leg to complete one repetition.
This exercise can be made more challenging by increasing the resistance of the band. In addition to strengthening your core muscles, the banded plank march can also help to improve your balance and coordination. Because it involves pulling your legs "in", it can also help to improve the strength and stability of your hip muscles. Overall, the banded plank march is a challenging and effective exercise for improving core strength and overall fitness.
