Jackrabbit: The King of All Planks

Jackrabbit is one of my favorite moves on the reformer.  It works the entire body in an efficient and elegant way.  The resistance of the springs forces you to have excellent scapular stability as you slowly bring your knees in and out working the low abdominals.  In this one move you are working the Arms, Shoulders, Upper and Lower Abdominals, and Glutes.  The resistance from the springs forces you to pull deeper into your core stabilizing muscles and forces your muscles to work harder as you move in a slow and controlled way against the resistance.
