Plank

Muscles Targeted: Rectus abdominis, lower back, chest, shoulders

Starting Position: Start in push-up position, but keep your hands directly under your shoulders instead of outside your chest. Keep your legs straight behind you and your feet together. You are balancing on your palms and the balls of your feet. Hold this position for as long as you can, working your way up to one minute.
