Preparation for plank

Preparation for plank

Lie on your front propped up onto your forearms.
Tuck your toes under with your legs hips width apart.
Tighten your abdominal and buttock muscles, then slowly lift your body and hips up so that your weight is on your knees.
Next, lift your knees from the floor until you only have your forearms and toes in contact with the ground.
Drive your elbows into the ground to strengthen your shoulders while maintaining your gaze between your hands.
You should have a straight line from the top of your head to your heels.
Ensure your back does not sag.
