専門家のコメント

Plank row is a great exercise to challenge all the muscles of your core to stabilize your body while dynamically working the muscles of your back.

The most important thing to think about in this exercise is maintaining correct alignment. Make sure you can hold a plumb line posture (ears, over shoulders over ribs over hips) in your plank and then add the challenge of the row!
