Slider Pikes on StrongBoard Balance® will work your abs, obliques, shoulders, lower back, and chest to burn belly fat and tone your upper body. This is an intermediate exercise and should be performed on a stable surface prior to performing it with StrongBoard Balance. This exercise is primarily for the abs, obliques, and shoulders but will also work the hip flexors, and the lower back.

Steps
1. Start in plank position, with feet on sliders and hands palms down on the StrongBoard Balance platform, shoulder width apart. Be sure your abs are braced, hands are directly below your shoulders, and head is in proper alignment with the spine.
2. Holding plank position, pull both feet towards the board while raising your glutes into the air. Then bring your body back to starting plank position.
3. Repeat for desired amount of sets or duration.
Tips
Keep your abs braced at all times. Stabilize your hips and keep them from moving side to side. For more of a challenge, hold pike position for an extra squeeze or speed up your tempo.
