Thread: Plank Tutorial for Beginners.

The plank is an isometric core exercise. Isometric training is when you hold a position, which contracts a muscle without lengthening or shortening it while it’s tensed.
This is not only great for strength building but is also fantastic for burning fat and building endurance.

Planks involve a good amount of concentration to help you maintain the correct position while pushing through the burn.
This is great for helping you stay in the present, so your mind doesn’t wander, as well as for building stamina.

So many of us suffer from back problems – from sitting down at a desk all day, standing up all day or simply having weak back muscles.
Planks are great for working your lower back and building up strength without putting too much pressure on your spine.
And having a stronger back reduces your risk of injury when working out.

Some video on planking below show you how you can do it the correct way.
