I just copied and pasted
What is a plank?
Planks refer to the many ways we can hold the trunk of our body off the ground in a straight line.
There are many variations, including the top of a push-up plank, forearm plank, one-legged plank and those that include movement for a cardio element.
They aren’t just for strengthening, either.
“On the one hand, planks serve as a definite endurance and strengthening exercise for our core,” said Clifford Yun, a doctor of physical therapy at Alta Physical Therapy in New York City. “On the other hand, they are an evaluation tool.”
When doing a plank, neck or low back pain may indicate weaknesses in the upper or lower parts of the spine. Be careful if your back sags toward the ground because of a weak core. Sagging can compress vertebrae, put pressure on discs and cause shoulder joint inflammation.
Consider building strength before doing a plank challenge by doing sit-ups or Pilates and yoga exercises.
The 30-day plank challenge
The most common plank challenge is:
Days 1-2: Hold for 20 seconds
Days 3-4: Hold for 30 seconds
Day 5: Hold for 45 seconds
Day 6: Rest
Days 7-8: Hold for 45 seconds
Day 9: Hold for 60 seconds
Days 10-30: Increase by 30 seconds every 2-3 days. By day 30, you’ll be up to 300 seconds.
Beware that diving into a plank challenge with any of the weaknesses Yun described may cause more pain than strength benefits.
If you begin to experience pain during the challenge, it’s best to restructure your workout. For example, start with shorter periods of holding the plank– 5, 10 or 15 seconds– focusing on perfecting your form. From there, establish the number of sets and reps that are appropriate to maintain solid alignment.
The benefits of plank
Planks help our bodies:
- stand upright and tall with good posture
- improve balance and sports performance
- easily manage everyday activities like getting up from a chair or picking up a child
- prevent osteoarthritis, as well as muscular and joint aches
- maintain digestion and metabolism.
