The unilateral kettlebell sit up is a core-strengthening movement that takes the traditional plank exercise to a whole new level. The unilateral load placement challenges your core more, increasing dynamic anti-rotation and reducing strength asymmetries throughout your core.

Start in a high plank position with the kettlebell on the floor just behind your right hand. Push into your right foot and shift your weight to the left forearm on the ground to move into a seated position. Then reach your left hand beneath your torso to drag the kettlebell across over to the other side and rest it in front of your left hand’s position. Return to the starting position and perform again, alternating sides.
