Suspension Trainer Plank Static

Video coming soon...

The suspension trainer plank static workout is a highly effective exercise for engaging the abs.

By using the suspension trainer, the workout intensifies the challenge to the core muscles.

The suspension trainer forces the abs to work harder to stabilize the body during the plank position.

While the workout may engage some auxiliary muscles, its primary focus is on strengthening the abs.

Attach the suspension trainer to a secure anchor point above head height.
Stand facing away from the anchor point and hold the handles with your hands directly under your shoulders.
Walk your feet back until your body is at a slight angle, with your arms fully extended and your body in a straight line from head to heels.
Engage your core muscles by squeezing your glutes and bracing your abs.
Hold this position for the desired duration, keeping your body straight and avoiding any sagging or arching of the back.
Breathe steadily and maintain a relaxed but focused mindset.
To finish the exercise, slowly walk your feet back towards the anchor point and return to a standing position.

Position yourself facing the suspension trainer, with your hands resting on the handles and your feet slightly apart. Engage your core by pulling your belly button towards your spine, creating a strong foundation for the exercise.
Keep your body in a straight line from head to toe, ensuring your hips don’t sag or lift too high. Imagine your body as a plank, with your abs acting as the stabilizers. This will help you maintain proper form and maximize the engagement of your abdominal muscles.
Breathe deeply and evenly throughout the exercise, inhaling through your nose and exhaling through your mouth. This will not only help you maintain focus and concentration, but also provide a steady flow of oxygen to your muscles, enhancing their endurance and performance.
Hold the plank position for as long as you can without compromising your form. Start with shorter durations and gradually increase the time as your core strength improves. Remember, it’s better to maintain proper form for a shorter period than to sacrifice form for a longer duration.
Challenge yourself by incorporating variations into your plank routine. Try lifting one leg off the ground, bringing your knees to your chest, or adding a side plank twist. These variations will not only keep your workouts interesting, but also target different areas of your core, helping you achieve a well-rounded abdominal workout.
