So much sweat, so little space.
Plank to Pushup
Why It Rocks: Both planks and pushups are total-body moves. When you pair them together, you get twice as much muscle-sculpting power, says Paris. To get the most out of this exercise, squeeze your butt and legs throughout the exercise.
How to Do It: Start to get in a pushup position, but bend your elbows and rest your weight on your forearms instead of on your hands. Your body should form a straight line from your shoulders to your ankles. Brace your core by contracting your abs as if you were about to be punched in the gut (A). Press your body up into the top position of a pushup by extending your arms one at a time (B). Pause (C), then reverse the movement and return to your elbows. That's one rep.
