2 How to do the plank?

First thing first, though you may think that the exercise is easy by just looking at the posture, but make yourself ready for the strenuous exercise. The Plank will melt the fat from many places on the body like the stomach; it will also make your inner and outer muscles of back and upper back. It will also tone the muscles in the buttocks, the legs and hands. The real challenge is to slowly increase the time you spend planking day by day until the body becomes used to the strain. Doing this challenge will make your core strong enough to do the more advanced exercises and getting better muscles definition. You upper body should be straight and your elbows and toes should be the one to take the brunt of force when you raise your body. Take deep breaths while maintaining the straight-line position. You can strengthen the balance by pushing the muscles from the butt and split your legs and elbows. Here is the time sheet for the challenge:
