  5. Firing the Obliques Stabilizes the Trunk in Any Position Note: that the Rectus Abdominis has limited contact points whereas the Obliques act as a girdle around the whole trunk.

Baltimore: Williams & Wilkins, 1993.

Coaching “Cues” Front Plank Planks Stabilize trunk ( be a plank) by using abdominal muscles on side align shoulders hips and ankles Planks Goal: stabilize trunk using abdominal muscles align shoulders hips and ankles Strengthen muscles controlling shoulder and shoulder girdle Progression: Start face down with weight on forearms Lift body off ground into plank position ( avoid sagging in the middle) push forward into ground with forearms allow shoulder blade to move around ribs Modifications: Side Planks one forearm Lift hips off ground Align shoulder, hip, and ankles side: maintain shoulder blade position avoid hunching shoulders toward head) Compare and Contrast: Align ankle, knee, hip, shoulder, ear Watch sagging of waist area Check side abdominal muscles on sides above hip bone Are they on? If abs on, muscle feels hard If abs are off, area feels mushy Feel the difference in arm and leg speed when abdominals are off vs. on Keep elbow under shoulder Side Plank
