Straight Arm Plank Cues:
- Start exercise in a plank position: hands under shoulders, core engaged, and a straight line from shoulders-hips-feet.
- Keep your core engaged by pulling your belly button toward your spine, squeezing your glutes, activating your shoulder blades together.
- Maintain this static position for the allotted time.
Ideas for Exercise Uses:
- Perform as a power-up exercise to an elbow plank.
- Add to a superset as active rest between strength sets.
- Use in a workout at the end to try and beat your personal best plank time while tired.
