A plank isn’t just about holding yourself off the ground. It’s about how you hold the position.
A common mistake is letting the hips drop, allowing the lower back to arch, and losing tension in the core and glutes.
Try this instead:
Gently tuck your pelvis
Squeeze your glutes
Brace your core
Breathe while you hold
The goal isn’t always to hold the plank as long as possible. Sometimes it’s to hold great form.
Save this for your next workout and send it to someone who it could help.
