Planks have been one of my favorite exercises for years. They’re fairly easy to do and can be done almost anywhere. They’re also good for strengthening abs, back muscles, and posture.
That said, I get bored with them sometimes. I, like most people, don’t like doing the same thing for a really long time. That’s why adding some variation to my plank routine has really helped renew some of my motivation to work out. Here are just five of the different plank variations I have incorporated into my workout routine to make things more interesting.
1.Basic elbow plank
2.High plank
3.Side planks
4.Wall plank
5.Single leg plank
