Hey guys! I'm back with another fun version of a very festive core workout: Planksgiving! Planks are great to include in your workouts any time of year, but who doesn't love a good themed workout to keep fit for the holidays? I've done a few other variations in previous years, so might as well add another workout to the repertoire. Feel free to pick and choose what you like, or do the entire series together!

Set 3

  • Double Side Leg Raise (Left): Side Plank (Left)
  • Double Side Leg Raise (Right): Side Plank (Right)
  • Inner Thigh Leg Raise (Left): Side Plank (Left)
  • Inner Thigh Leg Raise (Right): Side Plank (Right)
  • Side V-Up (Left): Side Plank (Left)
  • Side V-Up (Right): Side Plank (Right)


Complete each exercise for 30 seconds. For a challenge, perform each exercise in the set back-to-back with no rest, or feel free to recover for as long as needed to modify and maintain good form. Ideally at least perform the planks immediately after the exercise before without rest for a one-minute block of work. In class we did set one all the way through, rested, then repeated once more before moving on to the second set twice, and finishing on the third set for two rounds, as well. To really amp up the intensity, give the entire series a try with no rest from start to finish all the way through! You can easily make this whole series a total workout, or add in a set or two to your regular workout routine.


If you have any questions, please feel free to ask! As always, make sure to consult your physician if you have any contraindications before starting a new workout routine. These workouts are meant to be fun inspiration to keep working on your fitness wherever you are in your wellness journey!

Happy and healthy holidays!
