What It Is
Rowing from a plank builds back strength while your midsection fights to keep your body from twisting.
How to Do It
Get into a high plank with your hands on a pair of dumbbells, feet wider than your hips. Pull one dumbbell up to your ribs while pressing the other into the floor. Lower it back down slowly. Switch sides each rep.
Skill Level
Intermediate. Free-weight lifts, single-leg balance under load, or near-bodyweight strength moves. Form matters.
Type
Strength. Builds muscle and strength with controlled, resisted movement.
Engagement
Unilateral (Alternating). Each rep alternates between sides.
