This elevated “high station” plank circuit lets you build serious arm, shoulder, core, and leg strength without overloading your joints. Using a bench, blocks, or any sturdy surface, you’ll cycle through three timed drills—thigh-to-chest leg drives, alternating shoulder taps, and full plank-to-chaturanga push-ups—for 30 seconds on, 30 seconds off, repeated for three rounds. The higher station reduces weight-bearing so you can repeat what you want to reinforce: a steady danda line from head, torso, and pelvis, minimized swaying, and clean elbow flexion in push-ups. Between sets, you reset with simple pranayama-style breathing to feel the energy you’ve opened. This circuit is ideal as a strength supplement for jump-backs, headstand transitions, and solid chaturanga, and can be scaled by adjusting speed, intensity, or number of rounds. **This drill develops:** Plank, Chaturanga Dandasana, jump-backs, jump-throughs, and the upper-body and core strength needed for smooth, powerful vinyasas throughout your practice.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
