Steps
- 1 Place your forearms on a flat bench, shoulder-width apart, with your elbows directly under your shoulders.
- 2 Extend your legs straight back, resting on the balls of your feet, so your body forms a straight line from your head to your heels.
- 3 Engage your core and glutes to maintain a rigid, straight body position, preventing your hips from sagging or rising too high.
- 4 Hold this plank position for the desired duration, keeping your body stable and still.
