The plank is a foundational movement that strengthens your core, stabilizes your spine, and reinforces posture. It’s simple but highly effective — and can be performed anywhere without equipment. Whether you're training for strength, endurance, or injury prevention, FitnessTracker encourages you to make planks a core part of your routine.
Instructions
- Start face-down on the floor, resting on your forearms and toes.
- Align your shoulders directly above your elbows and keep your head neutral.
- Engage your abs and glutes, keeping your body in a straight line from head to heels.
- Hold the position as long as you can without letting your hips drop or rise.
- To increase difficulty, try lifting one arm or leg while maintaining your form.
