All of my clients benefit from doing Planks and Side Planks at a level that challenges them. Having taught so many variations of Planks and Side Planks over the years, I realized that knowledge and awareness of the different Plank and Side Plank progressions were not out there—but needed to be. That was my motivation for writing this book.
