Place a looped resistance band around your bottom forearm and grab hold of the opposite side in your other hand.
Bend your knees and lift your hips off the mat until you have a straight line from your knees to the top of your head.
While holding the plank position, pull your top elbow up towards the ceiling against resistance.
Hold briefly and then relax; repeat for the required number of repetitions.
