6 Minute Plank Challenge


Why Plank?
to have strong abs, chest, shoulders, obliques, arms, back, glutes, hamstrings, calves, quads & more!
When doing a variety of plank poses you hit a LOT of different muscle groups and finer fibers. Unfortunately planks get done with bad form! I see it EVERY day at the gym. So, I didn't just want to give you a great work out, but I wanted to help you learn to teach yourself proper form. Proper form is a must or your back with be KILLING YOU!

  • align head with spine
  • align shoulders with elbows
  • keep back flat and strong 


FOREARM/ELBOW PLANK:
STRAIGHT ARM PLANK:

UP-DOWN PLANK:
SIDE PLANK:
For side plank with leg lift simple lift out side leg up and hold.

If at any point you feel tired retire to the position on your knees and KEEP GOING!
