I was doing 4 minutes every night last week

Is there any point to planking though?

Sure, if you have a low bf% and you plank for 2-4 minutes, your abs will be bulging, but does it actually build good core strength compared to other exercises?

bumping this question, I am genuinely interested. I have always been low bf% but stopped doing any ab exercises 3 months ago. My abs are actually harder to notice now but my core strength doesn't seem compromised during compound exercises.

>>39814751
A lot, planks are godtier for building core strength

Preach, but you also have to combine a multitude of other exercises. Combo of both planking and working certain sections of the body (Obliques etc.) result in the best buldging abs in my personal life... dats a meme

Put a towel under your elbows.
Or if you have absolutely no arm muscles, put your chest on a raised platform.
