I find there are two groups. People that like working their core, and people that do not.  I’ve been in both groups.  When I didn’t enjoy working my core, I wasn’t very consistent with it. It was hard and so not fun!

However, when I started intentionally making an effort in that area, it became stronger.  I also told myself it was good for me and that helped me to switch into the group that enjoys working their core!

My very first workout video I shared on my YouTube channel was a 10 minute plank workout.  It’s a good one!  10 minutes may feel really long and intense though so I wanted to offer a shorter option that is just as great – the 5 minute plank workout!

While I think planks are ahhhhh-mazing and such a great full body + core strengthener, if you’re postpartum or working through diastasis recti (DR) planks may not be the best option.  Instead, check out this DR friendly breath and core strength workout (10 mins)!
