How to do it

Spread your feet wider to create a stable base for the pass.

  1. 1

    Start in a standard plank position with a dumbbell just outside one arm's reach.

  2. 2

    Keep your body in a straight line from head to heels.

  3. 3

    Reach under your torso with one hand to grab the dumbbell and pull it across to the other side.

  4. 4

    Place the dumbbell down and return to the plank position.

  5. 5

    Repeat the movement with the opposite arm.

  6. 6

    Continue alternating sides for the desired number of repetitions.

Expert tip

Keep your core engaged and hips stable to prevent them from sagging or rotating. This will maximize the work on your core and shoulder stabilizers.
