Overview

The elbow plank pike is an exercise that targets the abdominal muscles, particularly the rectus abdominis or six-pack muscles. To perform the elbow plank pike, start in a high plank position with your hands on your elbows and your feet shoulder-width apart. Slowly pike your hips up so that your body forms a straight line from your shoulders to your ankles. Hold the position for a few seconds, then slowly lower back down to the starting position. Repeat for 8-12 repetitions.
