We all want a strong core, but this move does much more than that. Side Plank Crunches work your obliques, glutes, hamstrings, quadriceps, and inner/outer thighs. Involving all of these muscles will help strengthen your lower back and spine, which means less injury from sudden movements and back strain.
Give this awesome move a try for 3 sets of 15-20 reps on each side.
