"KIRK VICKERS: This next movement here is called the three-point stability again but we're going to use the legs this time. On the last movement, we did three-point stability with our arms. This one, same thing. Plank position, nice and straight. Head in alignment but this time, we're going to keep our legs--they're going to be about just outside our hips with this. We're going to lift our leg, hold it for a 30-count, try to stabilize it. We don't want to be out here. We want to be straight ahead. We're kind of on the toe with the other foot. Lift this leg up, hold it. We don't need to be way up in the air. We're just in line, just above the spine slightly. Keep the back, belly button to spine. Kinda look down. Keep our head in alignment with the rest of the spine. Hold that for 10- to 15- to 30-count and then switch and go over to the other leg. Many times that you'll find that one side is a little more stable than the other. That's okay. Again, I want to caution you not to train--train always to the weakest side. If one side is weaker, use that as your limit so you can balance out your body."
