Front Plank Variation: Knee To Elbow
In this video, Dr. Brian Damhoff demonstrates the **Knee To Elbow Front Plank Variation**—a dynamic anti-rotation + flexion core drill. Hold rigid hand or forearm plank. Drive one knee forward to touch same-side elbow (or as close as possible), return slowly—alternate. Hips stay level, no sway, core locked the entire time.
🔥 Benefits of Knee To Elbow Front Plank:
- ✅ Combines anti-rotation with controlled hip flexion
- ✅ Fires obliques, lower abs, and hip flexors intensely
- ✅ Improves scapular stability and full-body tension
- ✅ Enhances movement control and dissociation
- ✅ Progresses static plank with unilateral challenge
