Planks can help improve core strength and stability. Here’s everything you need to know about planks to help keep your tummy tight and your core strong.

Bird dog plank- Start in a high plank position. Brace your core and raise your right hand and left foot off the ground, like a traditional bird dog. Return to the starting position and repeat this motion on the other side of your body. Do 10 reps on each side

leg up plank- Start in a standard plank with arms and legs straight and shoulders above wrists.
Simultaneously raise left leg and right arm off the floor. Hold for 1 second. Lower arm and leg back to the floor and repeat with the opposite arm and leg. Do 3 sets of 10 reps, alternating legs.

Alternating Arm and Leg Raises- Keep your knee locked and lift your leg 8 to 10 inches from the floor, lifting your opposite arm at the same time. Hold for 5 to 10 seconds and repeat the exercise 3 to 5 times. Alternate sides.
