Single Leg Plank Pilates Exercises

Video Transcript

"We’re gonna move on to the single leg plank on the ball. We’ll start in the same position here. This takes a lot of balance. Which hopefully practice will give you. You want to center one of the legs, stabilize the leg, lift the other leg and hold for 8, 7, 5, 3, and 1 and switch. This is overload on the arms too. 2, and 1 and relax. You’re gonna lie back, bring both knees into chest, arm are straight, you’re gonna look as if you’re trying to look down into your navel, so your shoulder blades are up off the matt. You want to extend one arm just below 45 degrees if you can tolerate it. And then pull switch and switch and you’re gonna pull through your heels and lengthen your legs, nice and high. Navel to spine connection is crucial on this. Two more, one more hug your knees, relax."
