Build Your 1 Minute Plank | Video 3 | 30 Seconds ON, 30 Seconds OFF

[@sevgi0698]

i am using this series to build strength for the elbow plank and it really helped me, thank you. however, my neck and upper trapesis hurt a lot. i tried not carrying my head, I tried elongating it as a natural extension of my spine. yoga helped a lot generally but somehow in plank position it's still with me. In parallel, I have the strength for chaturanga, but I still do the version with my knees down because my neck hurts a lot. do you have any suggestions? thx a lot :)

Oh I'm so glad it's helping!! Yeah, the traps definitely hurt in a new & uncomfortable way with plank & pincha.. Like you're doing, keep the neck long, lift the chin just slightly. And when it's too much, drop the head a few breaths & let it relax. With time, you'll strengthen your traps & neck.
