How To Do A Proper Plank?

Start on the floor with forearms down and elbows under shoulders

Extend legs straight back with toes on the floor

Keep feet hip-width apart or together for more challenge

Tighten your core and glutes

Keep your body in a straight line from head to heels

Keep your neck neutral and eyes on the floor

Avoid letting hips sag or rise too high

Keep shoulders down and away from ears

Breathe steadily throughout the hold

Hold the position for as long as you can maintain proper form

Stop if you feel pain in your lower back, shoulders, or neck
