How to do it

Jump your feet out only as wide as your shoulders each rep.

  1. 1

    Start in a high plank position with your hands under your shoulders.

  2. 2

    Jump your feet out to the sides like a jumping jack.

  3. 3

    Immediately jump your feet back to the starting position.

  4. 4

    Keep your core engaged and repeat for the desired number of repetitions.

Expert tip

Keep your body in a straight line from head to heels, and avoid sagging or piking at the hips. Maintain a strong plank position throughout the exercise.

Common mistakes

  • ✕Bending the elbows as the feet jump out
