Strong From Home: Plank

If we're all being honest, no one puts in enough effort on ab exercises. ⁠

One of the BEST things you can do, especially if you are equipment-less, is to get a strong midsection. ⁠ ⁠

Like any other exercise, start with a moderately challenging amount of work, and progressively add time each week. The beautiful part about holds is that you can make progress on total amount of time held, without trying to hold for longer each set. ⁠ ⁠ Progress can look like 3 sets of :30 second hold on week 1, and by week 3 building up to 6 sets of :30 second hold, then starting over and doing 3 sets of :40 sec hold. ⁠ ⁠ Progressions are infinite if you are creative enough, and with limited equipment, you don't have much of a choice!⁠ ⁠
