Did you know that you can have a stronger and toned body with only 28 days with just one exercise? Yes, you read that right, and that exercise is the mighty plank. But why the plank? When done correctly, this move is a deeply effective exercise which strengthens your entire core and lower-back muscles and powerfully tones your arms, shoulders, and upper back.
The plank can be done anytime and anywhere, alone or as a part of a routine, whatever suits you best. You might think that it’s all too easy and simple, but hold that thought until you try to hold a plank for 60 seconds or more.
To do a perfect plank, place your forearms on the floor with your fists clasped, making sure the elbows are aligned below the shoulders. Your arms should form a 90-degree angle with the floor and your body should maintain a straight line from the heels through the top of your head. Tuck your toes, tighten your abs and hold the position for at least 20 seconds. Gradually increase the time up to 4 minutes on the last day of the challenge.
Start this 28-day planking challenge and see your body transform.
