Use Side Plank Crunches To Prevent Injury

This move strengthens much more than your core—it will help you strengthen your lower back to help prevent pain and injury.

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.
