- Start in a side elbow plank on your left side with your feet stacked, holding a light or medium dumbbell in your right hand.
- . Exhale, engage the deep abs, and rotate your ribcage toward the floor, bringing the dumbbell under your side body.
- James says to "rip up" the dumbbell like you're starting a lawn mower back to that side plank position. Prevent yourself from rotating too far back by engaging your core and focusing on your hip rotation.
- Repeat for a total of 12 reps on each side.
Alternate move: side plank hold or side plank with weight
