This week I’m back in the gym and because it’s Christmas I thought I’d show you a whole series of exercises in this weeks video.
They are all based around the “plank”, an exercise which ought to be at the heart of any athletes strength & conditioning routine
If you’ve been doing the plank for a while you may have wondered if there were any variations or advancements.
In the video below I’ll show you 6 alternatives that you can try out.
Enjoy the video
If you like this video please click the like button either on YouTube or just send it on to your friends. If you have any comments about the routine or you have any requests or suggestions for future videos then please post them to the blog below
Stay healthy & have fun

..and anothe way to wotk on your core strength is to do some Ashtanga yoga. Ashtanga has a greater emphasis on core strength than most other types of Hatha yoga. If you learn the technique properly and work the vinyasaa (the transitions from one posture to the next) then you will develop great core strength while at the same time increasing your flexibilty to help balance the effects of your triathln training.
