Reverse Plank Overview
Reverse plank targets all of your back and leg muscles. It's a posterior chain exercise.
You might have seen it in yoga too; it's a great strength training exercise if you want to strengthen your body. In short, it's a multi-purpose exercise that targets various muscle groups.
How to Do it
- Press into your palms and lift your hips and torso upward. Look up to the ceiling during this move.
- Point your toes and keep your arms and legs straight. Your entire body is strong and it should be forming a straight line from your head to your heels.
- Engage your core and suck in your belly button toward your spine.
- Hold this position for almost 30 seconds if you can.
- Lower your body back to the floor, returning to the starting position.
Tips on Reverse Plank
- When you can no longer stay in the right posture, it's time to end the exercise.
- Do not pressurize your knees: do the exercise with your glutes and back.
