The Plank Pose strengthens several muscle groups, including abs, lower back, glutes, and shoulders. Proper alignment is crucial for effective engagement and injury prevention.
To execute a proper Plank Pose, ensure your hips don't sag, maintain a straight line from head to heels, and engage your core effectively for stability.
Avoid lifting your butt in the air during Plank Pose; this could lead to relying on hip flexors instead of engaging the lower abdominals properly.
When positioning your hands, they should be beneath or slightly wider than your shoulders, especially for those with tight shoulders; proper alignment is key for effectiveness.
