The side plank rotation using a padded stool engages the core and obliques, adding an element of rotation to increase difficulty. This exercise enhances stability and core strength by requiring balance and controlled movement.

How to do it

  1. Start in a side plank position with one forearm on the padded stool and feet stacked.
  2. Engage your core and extend the other arm straight above your body.
  3. Slowly rotate your torso, bringing the extended arm under your body and then back up.
  4. Maintain a stable position throughout, focusing on controlled movements.
  5. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions, then switch sides.
