  • Boosts mood: Planks stretch, relax and relieve muscle groups that often become stiff and tense, especially from extended sitting and desk job work.
  • Strengthens & Tones: Your whole body has to be engaged in order to do a proper plank, strengthening and toning muscles all over.

  • Reduces Back Pain: Strengthening your core and back also relieves back pain.
  • Elongates & Lengthens: Plank helps neutralize the spin to develop spinal support, improved posture and an elongated body and neck.
  • Increases Flexibility: Planks expand and stretch the muscles around your shoulders and shoulder blades, increasing flexibility. They even stretch your toes and arches of each foot.
  • Increases Wrist Integrity
