Has it been decided that this is the GOAT core exercise?

Am I supposed to ask a random gym goer to drop a plate on my back like some fucking mong?

>>38923317
Lol sure

>>38923317
No, you throw the plate and immediately get to the floor hoping that the plate doesn't squash your head.

>>38923317
Put the plate on your back while lying down, then assume the position you fucking boong

>he doesn't have a gymbro

Her feet are in cheat-mode position. They should be perpendicular to the floor.

Last night I had someone tell me you have to arch your back in order to activate the abs during a plank. As in cat back. Retarded, right?

So is this exercise really as good as OP says?

>>38923433
Absolutely. Keep your core tight and your back should be straight.

I fucking knew it. It was instagram of all places.

What's the point of even doing planks if you aren't being vibrated?

>>38923433
Contracted glutes + contracted abs = plank

>Gym babbies don't realize that they can achieve the same effect by progressing to a one armed, one legged plank

baka

>>38923433

What's the point of even eating almonds if they're not being activated?

>>38923527
This dude was advocating almost full flexion of the spine though. Basically he was telling people to get into a plank, do a crunch and then hold it.

>>38923553
But that's what gymnasts do to work their core

>>38923589
Well fuck me I don't know anything anymore.

>>38923317
i just put tons of duct tape doubled over on my back and then sit on the plate and it sticks pretty good, then roll over

planks are for plebs
trips confirm
