Add Pliés to Your Planks for Defined Abs What You'll Get: This total body move takes the plank (a super-effective move for building core and upper body strength), and adds a dancer's plié to target the glutes, inner and outer thighs, hips and hamstrings.
Here's How: Place your feet against the wall, slightly turned out, and walk your hands out in front of you until you're in the standard plank position. For the plié, bend your knees and pull your hips back towards the wall. Push off the wall to extend back into your starting plank position. If you're really feeling ambitious, add a pushup when you're in plank position after each plié.
Do This Many: Do 2-3 sets of 15 plié planks, taking short rests in between.
