Position yourself in a plank position with your hands on the floor and feet elevated on a sturdy box or bench. Maintain a straight line from head to heels, engaging your core muscles to stabilize your body. Hold the plank position for one minute, ensuring your hips do not sag or rise. Focus on breathing steadily and keeping your core tight throughout the exercise. To modify, place your knees on the floor while still engaging your core for maximum benefits.
