Plank-Challenge
Not motivated enough for a 30-minute workout, but you want to stay fit? Especially in the wet and cold season, the motivation for physical activity decreases for many people. But it doesn’t always have to be a long session of sport to get your body moving. Instead, what about a whole-body exercise that you can integrate into your everyday life?
An effective exercise is the so-called forearm support, also known as plank.
Your benefits at a glance
What is the Plank good for?
While you hold the Plank, several muscle groups in your body are activated and engaged. In the upper body, your abdominal muscles, lumbar muscles and back extensors are stimulated. But your leg muscles and gluteal muscles also work out. The forearm support is a full-body exercise that can help strengthen your muscles if repeated continuously over several weeks.
