You move from a plank on your hands to a plank on your elbows and then back again!

Skip to the 50 second mark. It's arms, best, shoulders, abs. I hate them but they do work!

Push-ups are my jam!

I love the full body strength workout from yoga, too. One of my yoga teachers incorporates some pilates style roll ups and things - augh, they burn so goooood!
