# Ab Workout

Planks

Planks help enhance strength in your core, shoulders, arms and glutes, with all of them being extremely vital areas of development. They also help toughen you up so that you can lift weights and participate in challenging sports without breaking too much of a sweat.

Step 1: Get into a push-up position before bending your arms at a 90-degree angle while resting your weight on your forearms.

Step 2: Make sure your elbows are directly beneath your shoulders while making sure your body forms a straight line from your head to your feet.

Step 3: Hold your position for as long as you can while giving your core a good squeeze.

Important Tip: Begin with 3 sets of 12 reps.
