Thread: How to do the perfect plank

If there’s one exercise we all love to hate and hate to love, it’s this one. A plank is a simple, effective bodyweight exercise that requires no equipment and can be performed just about anywhere (well, use your judgment).
Holding your body (light as a feather) stiff as a board develops strength primarily in your core — the muscles that connect your upper body and lower body — as well as your shoulders, arms, and gluts.
WHAT
• The plank is one of the most popular exercises to develop static core strength for increased health and performance.
• It is a foundation training drill in gymnastics and has become the go-to abdominal move for many exercisers.
HOW
• Lie on your front and lean on your elbows. The elbows should be shoulder-width apart and under the shoulders.
• Begin the movement by lifting the hips off the floor until the low back has flattened slightly – you will feel the core engage. When you get to this position, set the shoulders and hold this position.
• When you have the correct position, your body will be in a slight hollow or dish shape.
• Continue to breathe naturally, as you hold for the desired time.
