Planche Lean

Description

The Planche Lean is an exercise that helps build strength and balance, primarily targeting the shoulders, chest, and core. To perform this exercise, start in a push-up position with your hands placed shoulder-width apart. Lean your body forward, shifting your weight onto your hands while keeping your arms straight. Your shoulders should move past your wrists, and your body should form a straight line from head to heels. Hold this position, engaging your core and maintaining balance. The further you lean, the more challenging the exercise becomes. It's important to keep your elbows locked and avoid sagging your hips.
