Contract Hard During Planks

During planks, actively contract scapulae, core, quads, and glutes as hard as possible rather than merely holding position passively.

1 / 1

“You can do a plank in which you get in a position and you simply contract the least amount necessary to hold the position. Also, you could contract as hard as possible, pulling your scapula down and back, squeezing your core, squeezing your quads, squeezing your glutes.”
