Overview
The plank jack is an exercise that targets the abdominal muscles, particularly the rectus abdominis or six-pack muscles. It is a dynamic exercise that requires the entire body to work together, making it a great way to get a full-body workout. To do a plank jack, start in a plank position with your arms extended and your feet shoulder-width apart. Then, jump your feet out to the sides so that your body is in a wide stance. Immediately jump back to the starting position and repeat. You can make this exercise more challenging by adding a weight plate to your back or by doing it on an unstable surface, such as a BOSU ball.
