The plank is a basic bodyweight exercise that strengthens the core as well as the upper and lower body muscle groups. This isometric training exercise builds a full-body foundation while also improving joint stability. Lie on the floor with elbows directly beneath your shoulders and legs fully extended.

When it comes to core strength, the plank exercise is like that best friend you can always rely on. The harder-than-it-looks move never lets you down because it strengthens every muscle in your core (not just the abs you can see) while also working your shoulders, butt, and legs. That's why this workout made up of plank variations is a must-try.
Planks are usually static (or still), but you'll challenge yourself to incorporate small movements as well as engage additional muscles like your inner thighs to up the intensity. You don't need any equipment for this one (an exercise mat is optional).

The abdominal muscle group is the strongest muscle group in the body, and it influences every physical activity you can imagine. From sitting in a chair and walking in the park to running and throwing a ball, all are influenced by the ability of the strength, speed and coordination generated to be fluidly transmitted across the lower and upper halves of the body. The pivot here is abs. Weak abdominals become black holes, energy sinks in, and we lose strength and momentum. Our coordination suffers. We fatigue more easily.

Training the abdominal muscle group is no easy task. The muscles do not all respond to training at the same rate, and there is a core group of abdominals running beneath the external ones with muscle fibers pointing the opposite way. This makes for a core picture that no single exercise can adequately address, which helps explain why strong abs are hard to attain, which makes them an aim to strive for.

The Five-Minute Plank is a paradox of sorts. It uses relative inactivity to challenge the abdominal muscles and strengthen them. In five minutes you get to exercise as many parts as possible of the muscle wall. The result: strong abs, a strong core, more power, better coordination... plus you get to look good on the beach.

The importance of core strength
Abdominal muscles must provide support for our entire back and spinal column. In doing so, they also play a vital role in preventing injuries. However, for them to perform this function successfully, our core muscles have to be strong and trained on a regular basis. What all this means is that doing plank exercises every day is a great way to strengthen your core, and in doing so, support your spine.
