What is a plank?

The plank is a bodyweight exercise that involves holding your body in a straight, stationary position while resting on your forearms and toes. It is a popular exercise for strengthening and toning the muscles in your core, including your abs, back, and hips. A staple of fitness and is often used during fitness tests and assessments.

Often also referred to as a prone bridge it is a simple static exercise that will work every part of your core and your whole body as you maintain a rigid position.

Visually the plank is a bridge supported on your toes and forearms, a straight line from your heels to your shoulders. As a result, It looks so simple that you’d think it was easy, but it is not. Consequently, you’ll find the plank in almost any fitness programme and that is because it is highly effective and works a fundamental muscle group, your core.

Plank Fitness Test

The January Plank challenge is progressive and you should notice some gains throughout the month. To start off you should test your current core strength with a Plank test. This simple test will give you an idea of where you are now, this can be compared when conducting the same test at the end of the challenge. The result of the test will help you choose the plank variation to do during the challenge.

To conduct the test:

  • Have a stopwatch ready or a friend with a stopwatch.
  • Get into the plank position.
  • Hold the plank for as long as you can.
  • Stop the test when you fail or you reach 2 minutes.

Choose the Plank variation based on your initial Plank Test result

  • Under 30 seconds – Choose the Beginner variation (Half Plank).
  • 30 seconds up to 1 minute 30 seconds – Choose the Regular plank on forearms or with straight arms.
  • 1 minute 30 seconds and above – Choose the Plank/Up Down variation for a dynamic plank. Alternatively, you could use an unstable platform such as a BOSU, Balance Pod or Fitness Ball and place your feet upon them creating a more demanding static Plank exercise. Or choose from these 28 Plank Variations

Test your progress with a follow-up Plank Test at the end of the month

After a month of regular planking, you should be feeling stronger with more endurance in your core and stabilizing muscles. To find out how you have improved, repeat the test you conducted at the start of the month. The test should be exactly the same conditions, same plank variation etc.

I have designed this challenge as a progressive ascending pyramid, in simple turns, each day is equal to or harder than the last. The challenge progresses in small steps enabling you to become stronger as you go through the month. The challenge has two-day steps where we keep to the same target for two days (we can call this acclimatization if you like). It’s all to get you up to your target time at the end of the month, in a safe, effective and progressive manner.

January Plank Challenge

Congratulations on making it to the final day of the #Plankawayjanuary plank challenge! Today’s goal is to do a 120, 240, or 360-second plank, depending on your fitness level. The plank is a great exercise for strengthening and toning the muscles in your core, including your abs, back, and hips, and it’s important to start slowly and gradually increase the duration as you get stronger to avoid injury.

If you’re just starting out with the plank exercise, Level 1 (120 seconds) may be a good place to begin. And grab those extra points by increaseing the duration to Level 2 (240 seconds) or Level 3 (360 seconds). Remember to keep your body in a straight line and avoid sagging or arching your back as you hold the plank position. Keep your core muscles engaged and try to maintain good form throughout the exercise.

This has been a great challenge, and you should be proud of yourself for making it this far. You’ve put in a lot of hard work and dedication to improving your core strength and endurance, and the results are surely starting to show. Keep up the good work, and don’t forget to take breaks when you need them. Happy planking, and congratulations on completing the #Plankawayjanuary plank challenge!
