5. Planks
This exercise gets its name from the "plank" position, which
works several groups of muscles but particularly the abdominal
muscles.
Planks is an endurance exercise that will really challenge both
your endurance and your focus.
Steps:
* Lie down on a yoga mat in the pushup position, then lift and
support your body with your forearm and toes.
* Make sure that your back is perfectly straight and that your hips
are not touching the floor.
* Hold this position for 15-20 seconds, while fully concentrating
on keeping your body straight and balanced.
* Release the position and rest for 10 seconds.
Repeat the exercise 3-5 times.
