January Plank Challenge (PlankAwayJanuary)

PlankAwayJanuary Day 27

January Plank Challenge

Day 27 of the #Plankawayjanuary plank challenge is here, and it’s time for another round of the plank exercise. Today’s goal is to do a 95, 190, or 285-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 increasing the duration as you get stronger to avoid injury.

If you’re just starting out with the plank exercise, Level 1 (95 seconds) may be a good place to begin. And if this feels easy, increase the duration to Level 2 (190 seconds) or Level 3 (285 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.

It’s no secret that the plank can be a challenging exercise, especially as you increase the duration. That’s why it’s important to remember to breathe and focus on your form as you hold the plank position. Taking deep, controlled breaths can help you to stay calm and maintain good form, even when the burn starts to set in. So remember to breathe, focus, and keep going – you’ve got this! Keep up the good work, and don’t forget to take breaks when you need them. Happy planking!
