How to do the Forearm Plank

1. Start on all fours, then lower forearms to the floor and step both feet back.
2. Engage your core to create a straight line from head to heels.
3. Distribute weight evenly between forearms and feet and hold with steady breathing.

Tips

• Stack elbows under shoulders for stability.
• Avoid letting your hips sag or lift too high.

Adjustments

• Drop to your knees while keeping a straight line from knees to head if you want a lighter option.
