  • Plank_to_row
    Plank to Row: 10 reps. Also called the Renegade Row, this is great for the core as well as the back muscles. Do this exercise in a very controlled manner, carefully securing the base of the kettlebell after lifting it. Get into a plank position, back and neck straight. Do a row with one arm, keeping the core tight, and return to the plank position. Do a row with the other arm. That’s one rep.
