Overview
The elbow plank saw is an exercise that targets the abdominal muscles, particularly the rectus abdominis or six-pack muscles. It is performed by starting in a forearm plank position with your elbows directly under your shoulders and your feet hipwidth apart. From this position, you slowly and controlledly lift your right knee towards your chest, then lower it back down. Repeat this movement with your left knee, alternating sides. Keep your core engaged throughout the movement and do not allow your hips to sag. Perform 10-12 repetitions on each side for 3 sets.
