This often happens with the side plank hip lifts. Many people perform them due to their benefits in improving core strength and burning fat deposited around the waistline.

We will also share some safety tips to help you stay safe and prevent injuries when performing this exercise.

It is one of the exercises to consider if you want something more challenging but still aligning with the plank. It incorporates a side plank and some hip lifts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All you need to perform this <a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/plank-calories-burned\/\">exercise<\/a> is some floor space and perhaps a mat. The mat will come in handy if you have a rough floor. There is, therefore, no excuse for why you cannot try doing this exercise at home.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, remember to consult a trainer before adding this workout to your exercise regime. It would help if you were sure that it is safe and that it will help you attain your set goals. The side plank hip lifts workout has been designed to target numerous body muscles. When they all come into play, the activation of these muscles will help you reap considerable gains.

The static strength training properties come into play when you are at the top of the movement with your hips lifted off the floor. At this point you have to hold the position for a few seconds.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During this time, the side plank hip lifts target the muscles along your side, better known as the obliques. It helps burn fat around this region, making it a practical love handles workout (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/fitness-exercise\/best-exercises-love-handles#1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).

However, this only counts if you actively engage your core during the exercise.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The following exercise also works your shoulder muscles. They are responsible for helping you maintain both balance and control during the movement. Similarly, these muscles help you support your upper body when you lift it off the floor. A side plank hip lift exercise can also work your glutes. The glutes are put to work during the hip lifts by helping you maintain stability.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Side_Plank_Hip_Lifts_Benefits\"><\/span><b>The Side Plank Hip Lifts Benefits<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You get to reap numerous benefits if you perform the side <a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/planks-for-beginners\/\">plank<\/a> hip lifts correctly.

The side plank is among the many different plank variations that people do. When you incorporate it alongside hip lifts, this exercise promises a lot of health benefits. Important to note, this happens only if done in the correct form.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The exercise is pretty challenging, so not beat yourself up if you cannot nail it in the first two or so trials. Continue practising as correct practice always makes perfect. Below are instructions on how to perform the side plank hip lifts (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.medicinenet.com\/script\/main\/art.asp?articlekey=221429\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">7<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">):<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lie on your right side and prop yourself up on the right elbow. Make sure it is placed directly underneath your shoulder.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Straighten your body and let your feet be stacked on top of each other.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Engage your core, obliques, and glutes and slowly raise your hips off the floor. Try to push through your feet and right elbow.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Maintain your body in a straight line and make sure that it is perpendicular to the floor. Place your left arm on your left hip and remember to face forward.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remember also to actively engage your core and glutes throughout the exercise. Do not pop out your behind or arch your back but instead let your body form a straight line from head to toe. This marks your starting position.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Start to lower your hips towards the floor slowly. You want to do this slowly as it will help you control your movements. The slower you go, the less the chances are for you to mess up your form.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lower your hips until they slightly tap the floor.

Your body may quit on you after trying only one rep of this exercise. Knowing this, it is no surprise that most people have a hard time figuring out the recommended reps of this exercise.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The idea is not to concentrate on how many side plank hip lifts you can do but instead on how to master the correct technique. So, avoid limiting yourself to doing 30 side plank hip lifts every day. Such a limit only stresses and pressures you.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You might be so focused on finishing these 30 reps that you forget the proper form. Similarly, you might get tired in-between your reps and end up increasing your pace, especially when doing the hip lifts. The result of such a pace is an incorrect form leading to injuries.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Read More:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/planking-for-weight-loss\/\">Planking For Weight Loss: Using Planks To Shed Off Some Extra Pounds<\/a><br \/>\n<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/quiz.betterme.world\/en\/first-page-generated-gender?flow=2361&#038;utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=Side_Plank_Hip_Lifts_To_Activate_Your_Obliques_And_Boost_Your_Core_Strength\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Frame-4201.png\" alt=\"side plank hip lifts\" width=\"1344\" height=\"756\" \/><\/a><\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_It_Safe_To_Do_Modified_Plank_Exercises\"><\/span><b>Is It Safe To Do Modified Plank Exercises?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you have already mastered the side plank hip lifts technique, you may be feeling confident to try other modified plank versions. There are a couple of these to try. Some of them include the climbing plank, plank with hip twists, plank jacks, plank with alternating side leg, and so forth (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.medicinenet.com\/types_of_plank_exercises\/article.htm\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The best thing to do is consult with a professional. Although you may desire trying out various plank variations, some may not align with your fitness goals. Similarly, incorporating too many variations may end up being strenuous and dangerous.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, if you can incorporate some of these plank exercises, make sure you do not bite off more than you can chew. Focus on a few of them so that you have enough time to focus on the proper form of each exercise. Chances are, you will disregard the form when you have numerous activities to complete in your workout plan.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remember to update your trainer on your progress continually.

They are better suited in advising you if it is the best regime to meet your fitness goals (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/fitness-exercise\/best-exercises-abs-general#1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Again, they will tell you what to look out for or when to stop doing such an exercise. For instance, they might ask you to stop doing the side plank hip lifts if you experience sharp or persistent pain in your pain or arm.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Maintain_The_Proper_Form\"><\/span><b>Maintain The Proper Form<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We have heard it many times, but it cannot be emphasized enough: maintain proper form when doing any exercise. It helps avoid common mistakes that mostly lead to injuries. The most common mistakes you can make when doing the side plank hip lift exercise include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Poorly positioning your torso. Your torso should always be perpendicular to the ground during this movement.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Leaning forward and pushing your bum out. If you lean forward and push your bum out, you will be somewhat arching your back. This happens, especially if you have been holding the plank hip lift for an extended duration. Your back should always be straight and never arched, as this may result in back pain and injuries.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Poorly placing your elbows. Remember that you will be lifting your upper body off the floor using your elbow. Make sure that it is directly underneath your shoulders (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/fitness-exercise\/guide\/fitness-how-tos#1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Poor feet placement. During this exercise, you must stack your feet together. Avoid placing them otherwise, as it may interfere with your stability and make you tip over.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Poorly positioning your entire body. You must maintain your body in a straight line from your ankles to your head. This means your back should be straight, and your bum should not be popping out. You should seek help from your fitness coach when doing the side plank hip lifts. They may demonstrate or guide you on maintaining the proper form, thus helping you avoid injuries associated with these grave mistakes.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/quiz.betterme.world\/en\/first-page-generated-gender?flow=2361&#038;utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=Side_Plank_Hip_Lifts_To_Activate_Your_Obliques_And_Boost_Your_Core_Strength\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/3-5.jpg\" alt=\"side plank\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" \/><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Breathe_Normally_And_Deeply\"><\/span><b>Breathe Normally And Deeply<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Do not hold your breath while performing the side plank hip lifts.

It is pretty easy to forget to activate or engage your core, especially when performing the side plank. If you do not engage the core, your abdominal muscles are not targeted (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mayoclinic.org\/healthy-lifestyle\/fitness\/multimedia\/core-strength\/sls-20076575?s=12\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Consequently, you do not get to work on your abs or burn fat around this region. Again, you need to engage your core and glutes to do the side plank hip lifts properly. If they are disregarded, you will end up doing the incorrect form.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Start_With_An_Easier_Variation\"><\/span><b>Start With An Easier Variation<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is of particular importance to note that this side <a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/30-day-plank-challenge\/\">plank variation<\/a> is not for everybody. It is primarily not recommended for beginners or individuals who have yet to master how to do the side plank properly.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you start by doing side plank hip lifts, the chances of getting injured are pretty high. You end up wobbling around or in the wrong form. Pave your way to doing these exercises by starting with the basic side plank.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you are good at it, progress to various side plank variations, such as the side plank hip lifts. Remember to also start slow with this variation. Take time to learn the correct technique and practice with countable reps. With time, and as you get good at the side plank hip lifts, you can increase your reps and sets.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Listen_To_Your_Body\"><\/span><b>Listen To Your Body<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your body will tell you a lot whenever you are doing the side plank hip lifts exercise. It will signal you when it is tired, indicating that it is time to rest or end the workout. For example, you may feel dizzy all of a sudden.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Feeling dizzy when working out is common, and it indicates dehydration (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.medicalnewstoday.com\/articles\/326851\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">9<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). However, if it persists and is accompanied by nausea, lightheadedness, and shortness of breath, it shows overexertion (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.medicalnewstoday.com\/articles\/326851\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">9<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).

Remember that you also need to rest no matter the type of exercise you are performing. According to Medical News Today, resting helps you in the following ways (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.medicalnewstoday.com\/articles\/rest-day\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">10<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">):<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Repair and build muscles.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0When <a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/how-to-do-burpees-for-beginners\/\">exercising<\/a>, you get to sustain various microscopic tears in your muscles. Resting allows your body to repair and build these muscle tissues.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Alleviate muscle pain and soreness.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0When you rest, your body gets to remove excess lactate from the muscles. This helps alleviate pain and muscle soreness.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Replenish your energy store.\u00a0<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you exercise, you tend to deplete your glycogen levels leading to muscle fatigue. Resting helps your body replenish its glycogen stores and reduce muscle fatigue. This way, you end up being prepared for your next workout.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Relaxing your mind.\u00a0<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Doing too many side plank hip lifts can tire both your body and mind. When you are tired, you are most vulnerable to doing this exercise in the wrong form. The wrong form will always result in injury. So, always have some rest days to allow your mind to relax as well.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Prevent injury.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> If you do not have any off days, you will end up over-exercising. Over-exercising stresses your body muscles, increasing your risk of injury. Remember always to incorporate some rest days in your workout schedule to reduce your injury risk.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n    <section class=\"ad-single-wrapper\">\n        <div class=\"ad-single-text ad-title-wrapper\">\n            <h3 class=\"ad-single-title\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Get_your_personalized\"><\/span>Get your personalized<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n            <span class=\"ad-single-sub-title color-green\">\n                <svg class=\"icon-sparkle\" width=\"36\" height=\"21\" viewBox=\"0 0 36 21\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\">\n                    <path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" clip-rule=\"evenodd\"\n                          d=\"M34.6837 0.515943C34.8247 0.835947 34.9421 1.16291 34.9891 1.48987C35.1417 2.64466 35.3179 6.51949 35.2592 7.29863C35.2592 7.53515 35.1887 7.7995 35.0243 8.01516C34.7307 8.39777 33.9791 8.4256 33.5681 8.07081C33.4154 7.94559 33.3215 7.77863 33.2745 7.61863C33.1453 7.15254 33.0396 6.68645 32.9809 6.22035C32.8165 4.81512 32.6638 3.40293 32.5581 1.9977C32.5229 1.53161 32.6051 1.05856 32.6991 0.592466C32.7695 0.244637 33.251 -0.0197144 33.6973 0.00115537C34.2257 0.0289818 34.5546 0.230723 34.6837 0.515943ZM18.6184 9.78225C18.5734 9.67557 18.5344 9.57528 18.4971 9.47956C18.4178 9.27568 18.3465 9.09257 18.2426 8.91267C16.7159 6.24133 14.2615 3.86217 11.4665 1.60128C11.1377 1.33693 10.7267 1.08649 10.2687 0.919531C10.0221 0.829095 9.52885 0.843009 9.247 0.933445C9.03562 1.00301 8.88295 1.27432 8.92992 1.42736C9.01213 1.71954 9.18828 2.01868 9.4349 2.28303C11.0555 4.02913 12.6879 5.76829 14.3437 7.50048C14.8308 8.0068 15.3395 8.50887 15.8473 9.01L15.8473 9.01001C15.9883 9.14921 16.1293 9.28833 16.2697 9.42746C16.4811 9.64311 16.7159 9.85181 16.9626 10.0466C17.2327 10.2692 17.6437 10.4014 18.0547 10.2553C18.0691 10.2501 18.0836 10.245 18.0981 10.2399C18.1097 10.2358 18.1213 10.2318 18.1329 10.2278C18.3785 10.1424 18.6184 10.0589 18.6184 9.78225ZM1.98942 20.1407C2.17783 20.1221 2.37674 20.105 2.58175 20.0875C2.99012 20.0525 3.42272 20.0154 3.84492 19.9598C6.34632 19.6259 8.84771 19.292 11.3374 18.9442C11.8776 18.8676 12.406 18.7355 12.8875 18.5824C13.5334 18.3807 13.7566 18.0954 13.6509 17.7824C13.5452 17.4694 13.1224 17.2746 12.3826 17.2676C11.8776 17.2607 11.3374 17.2676 10.8559 17.3372C7.69683 17.8102 4.5378 18.2972 1.3905 18.7911C1.03819 18.8468 0.674137 18.9442 0.404034 19.0833C-0.2771 19.4242 -0.065712 19.9598 0.803314 20.092C1.01858 20.1228 1.25262 20.1258 1.51135 20.1291C1.66195 20.131 1.82092 20.133 1.98942 20.1407Z\"\n                          fill=\"#17B991\"\/>\n                <\/svg>\n               meal plan!\n            <\/span>\n        <\/div>\n    \n        <div class=\"ad-single-text ad-desc-wrapper\">\n            <p class=\"ad-single-desc\">What's your main health goal?<\/p>\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/quiz.betterme.world\/en\/first-page-generated-gender?flow=2361&utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=Side_Plank_Hip_Lifts_To_Activate_Your_Obliques_And_Boost_Your_Core_Strength\" class=\"btn-ad btn-green\">Lose weight<\/a>\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/quiz.betterme.world\/en\/first-page-generated-gender?flow=2361&utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=Side_Plank_Hip_Lifts_To_Activate_Your_Obliques_And_Boost_Your_Core_Strength\" class=\"btn-ad btn-green\">Feel great<\/a>\n        <\/div>\n        <img class=\"ad-single-img\" alt=\"health-food\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"395\" height=\"383\" src=\"https:\/\/dev.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/themes\/gridlove-child\/assets\/img\/ad\/health-food.webp\">\n    <\/section>\n<p><iframe title=\"BetterMe | Total plank workout at home\" width=\"770\" height=\"433\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/rM7Rd8iOXzM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"DISCLAIMER\"><\/span><b>DISCLAIMER:<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This article is intended for general informational purposes only and does not address individual circumstances.
