I had no idea shaking was kind of a good thing when planking..I thought it simply meant I was THAT weak/out of shape. 😅 Thanks!

[@runaway_36]

Nope shaking is awesome 😊

[@laszlolilien1316]

Same that’s what I thought

[@creek3205]

I felt the same. Shaking means it's working 😁

[@AngloSaxonVanguard]

I thought the same too! My abdominal area was shaking after ten seconds and thought I must be really out of shape😂

[@molikael3654]

Same here. I start to shake after 20 sec 😂

[@SubscribersWithoutAnyVid-rj1fw]

Doctor: You have one minute to live * Me starts Planking* Doctor: What are you doing? Me: Making this minute feel like a lifetime...

[@pz4934]

lmfao

[@barbaraseymour3437]

Great.

[@ovieawumamadike651]

Thank you lol

[@dabeezkneez8716]

🤣🤣🤣👍🏾

[@johannaortiz2404]

[@olive_oyl]

I have never been told or realized that you’re supposed to push back your heels while planking. Not one trainer has told me this! Very helpful thank you!

[@choosemeordie]

The tilt tip is a game changer!!!!!

[@KennyLiang]

Big thanks for the tip on the heels. Truly felt my core engaged and I could keep my heels together, instead of shoulder length apart. Plus shoulders/elbows were less fatigued

[@redefiningstrengthOC]

YAY! So glad it helps! Often it's those little tweaks that help us better engage muscles and become more efficient with the movements!

[@mjrussell414]

The regular plank is hard enough for me right now, but I won’t try holding it for a minute anymore. 30 seconds with proper form does get the shaking going.

[@racheldye1298]

Thank you Cori! Great info as usual, I learn new things all the time from you! I did not know about the elbow positioning or heels back, and I’ve been practicing planking a lot so I’m very excited to implement this!💪🏼🙌🏼

[@redefiningstrengthOC]

Little tweaks can make the difference! And even having options to adjust moves based on our needs. Let me know how it feels doing those adjustments!

[@lorenaballou4513]

Omg! No wonder my lower back has been so tender since I started doing planks regularly 😆 Thanks for your thorough explanation! It really helps us newbies.

[@erics.859]

I was having trouble figuring out what I'm doing wrong with my planks. This really helped. Thanks so much.

[@cherylyoungblood1230]

I watched this video over a week ago and wanted to apply the techniques I learned from it. I was able to with my coach, tonight during my warm up for boxing lessons. The cupping the hands and elbows out to help support the shoulders, tremendously helped my form. Thank you for sharing this tip. I feel a lot more confident during a plank.

[@redefiningstrengthOC]

Aw yay! This legit makes me so happy to hear! So glad you used the tips and felt that difference!!

[@BetsyMarkman]

Thank you for this! I'm brand new to planks, and this video really gave me confidence to get started.

[@deepthipeiris]

Love this channel! Thank you for all your advice !

[@e-zfitness4380]

Thanks for putting this together.

[@AM-pc3yd]

[@paulmartin7635]

Really useful - especially the tips about pushing back through the heels and if it's shaking, it's working!

[@oyintarella]

Thank you Cori, I love you videos very precise and informative. time well spent. Thank you!

[@redefiningstrengthOC]

This is probably the best video on plank. Thank you so much.

[@mariasulaiman7180]

Love it. Thanks

[@Siahaan_and_Co]

thank you for great explanation👍

[@historyaddict6302]

Thank you for the modification. About 6 days ago I had rotator cuff surgery and cant use my right arm… I will attempt the incline version using my left arm only.

[@enanthem]

This video was so helpful I only wish I had found it sooner! You're completely right about focusing on planking longer. I've been trying to extend my planking time but I could barely get past 30 seconds. I just tried it again, following these tips and I got to 50 seconds! My max time had been 1m 30s but doing it this way felt so much better than watching the time until it hit a certain number and then trying to push past that lol. This is great improvement! Thank you so much for this video! =D

[@christinekeating2141]

Great information

[@elizabethflores9463]

Thank you, very informative video. 👍🏻

[@lanaeatkinson4298]

At last a plank guide thats comprehensive and informative and earned an instant sub

[@TIO540S1]

There are not a lot of women in whom I find value on fitness related channels. For that matter, there are not a lot of men in whom I find value on fitness related channels!Yours is an extremely significant exception to that. Thanks for your straightforward and scientific approach. It’s much appreciated!

[@lainaadorable8]

I just started a workout today, so thank you for this vid! It was very helpful and I liked the things you pointed out! Will try doing the planks again tommorrow but focus on feeling the burn on the right muscles this time :)

[@spicymcjules]

I always felt bad or that I was cheating for holding my hands together but I'm glad to see it's actually beneficial :)

[@nancyslaststand]

Same

[@KelseaKC]

This is very helpful

[@sonineha0507]

You are an amazing communicater! Thank you 🙏

[@redefiningstrengthOC]

Thanks!

[@tovekane]

Thank you so much. We've started a Menopause Plank Challenge (because as bones deteriorate, we really wanted to develop a stronger core). This is such a useful video in that it sets great foundations that I know I may have rushed passed. Thank you for the clarity. Whooo hoo. Abs here we come!

[@dianaorlando3964]

I appreciate your detailed form description. I have severe scoliosis and osteoporosis, I continue to struggle with knowing proper technique for planking. Do you have any other tips for planking with a right thoracic left lumbar scoliosis? I just discovered you and found this planking video quite useful. Thanks Diana

[@jonro09]

This has helped my tremendously as I am a new to the Plank. Thank you 😊

[@redefiningstrengthOC]

[@e-zfitness4380]

[@jkz628]

What isEz plank

[@howellomaha]

Yoga mats help. I often have to fold mine in half and put my elbows on it and it is such a huge relief. My elbows don't feel like they are eating into the floor anymore.

[@ilovehyunjin506]

i get bruises near the elbow and knees when i do planks on the floor

[@SithLordBishop]

Needed this for sure :D

[@redefiningstrengthOC]

So glad it helps!

[@shabbircalcuttawala907]

I always thought to hold both arms apart for better effect but I was always comfortable clasping both hands as I felt I could hold the planks position more easily and longer thanks for the tip
