Finding an exercise that gets you more bang for your buck is like hitting a jackpot, and if it's bodyweight—AKA requiring no equipment other than your body—you're onto a winner. One exercise we love that falls under this category is the up and down plank, also known as a commando plank or moving plank.
An up and down plank is as simple as it sounds, you move from a high plank to a low plank, and repeat. Simple it may sound, but it definitely will ignite a burn in your core as well as your triceps, shoulders and lower back. As you brace yourself in the plank position you will also engage your quads and glutes.
