Be a lean planking machine and transform your core… 🧡 If you like me, having a toned core and keeping my muffin top under control is a constant battle. That’s why I love a bit of planking 3-5 minutes a day can transform you… 🧡 So why not join me on a 30 day plank challenge. Start at 30-40 seconds x 3 reps and build up by 10 seconds a day to 2-3 minutes per rep If it gets to hard then stay at one time for a couple of days… 🧡 And to stop yourself getting bored why not add a weight like I did here, or include side planks… 🧡 The key is getting the position right, here are some tips… *Your weight should be evenly spread on the balls of your feet and your elbows.. *Keep your back and hips aligned so that your body forms a straight line from shoulders to ankles… *Brace your abs. The key is not to let your hips sag, or raise them too high. Form a straight line, like a plank of wood… 🧡 The plank world record for holding a plank currently stands at 8 eight hours and one minute, but let’s stick to 3 reps 2-3minutes for 30 days .. 🧡 Up for a challenge ? 30 day challenge guide, link in bio… 🧡 Happy Wednesday plankers 😂😂.. .. .. .. #midlife #gym #weights #fitness #fitwomen #over50 #fit #womenwholift #fitnessjourney #healthy #strong #womenshealth #arms #workout #midlifewomen #workoutmotivation #plank #plankchallenge #abs #gymlife #fitover40 #fitover50 #wellness #healthyliving #exercises #workouts #women #wednesdaywisdom #strongnotskinny #gymmotivation #abs
