Plank Benefits:

 Anyone who’s tried planking before knows it works the whole body.

As you perform it, you should feel tension in the buttocks, arms, shoulders, chest, back, neck, legs, feet, and abdominal muscles.

It is believed that planking burns more fat than crunches because it engages your whole body.

 Plank helps:

 Improve Posture

Improve sports performance

Reduce back and shoulder pain

Prevent osteoarthritis

Maintain healthy digestions

Boost metabolism

Improve flexibility and balance

Boost mood

How to perform plank:

Start with your belly on the ground, keeping your feet at hips width apart and your palms beside your chest at shoulders width apart. This starting position should resemble a push-up position.

Lift yourself up, placing your weight on your toes and lower your arms one at a time so that your forearms are touching the ground.  Your weight should be distributed equally on your toes and forearms. Keep your back straight with your head facing to the ground, tightening your core and buttocks.
