The Plank

Technique:

The basic plank exercise, also called a hover, is the starting place if you want to improve your core strength and stability.

• Begin in the plank position with your forearms and toes on the floor
• Keep your torso straight and rigid and your body in a straight line from ears to toes with no sagging or bending
• Your head is relaxed and you should be looking at the floor
• Hold this position for 10 seconds to start
• Over time work up to 30, 45 or 60 seconds

How Often?

Repeat 4 times, twice daily
