High plank: where love meets core strength! 🏋️♀️💘
DO 5-10 SETS OF 30-60 SEC HOLDS ONCE A WEEK
The high plank is a foundational bodyweight exercise that primarily targets the core muscles while also engaging the shoulders, arms, and legs. Here are 10 benefits of incorporating high planks into your fitness routine:
Core Strengthening: High planks engage the entire core, including the rectus abdominis, obliques, and transverse abdominis, promoting a strong and stable midsection.
Improved Core Endurance: Holding a high plank position for an extended period helps improve core endurance, crucial for maintaining stability during various activities.
Upper Body Activation: The exercise engages the shoulders, arms, and chest, contributing to upper body strength and stability.
Full-Body Engagement: High planks provide a full-body workout, activating muscles in the arms, shoulders, core, and legs simultaneously.
Balance and Stability: Maintaining a straight line from head to heels challenges balance and coordination, leading to better overall stability.
Calorie Burn: High planks can contribute to calorie expenditure, making them beneficial for weight management when included in a workout routine.
Improved Posture: Strengthening the core through high planks promotes better posture by supporting the muscles that align the spine and pelvis.
Functional Movement: The exercise enhances core strength for more efficient functional movements in daily life.
Increased Shoulder Stability: High planks engage and strengthen the muscles around the shoulder blades, contributing to improved shoulder stability.
Injury Prevention: A strong core and improved stability from high planks can reduce the risk of injuries, particularly in the lower back and shoulders, during physical activities.
Incorporating high planks into your fitness routine can provide these benefits, making them a valuable addition to your core-strengthening and full-body training. It's important to maintain proper form during the exercise and gradually increase the duration as your strength and endurance improve.
