Get into push-up position and hold it on your forearms, keeping your body in a straight line from head to heels. Start with 30-second holds and work up to the full 2 minutes over several attempts. Focus on breathing steadily and engaging your core—your abs, back, and shoulders will all feel the burn.

People who tried this
“Maybe I should preface this blog by saying the title should read – “I tried to do a 2 minute plank everyday for a month…” Because when you’re counting the seconds, two minutes can seem like an eternity. As a result I suffered 7 days of planking pain for the entirety of the first week! Overthinking the time factor of a ‘two minute plank’ is NOT recommended.”
“By day 3, I finally achieved more seconds on my toes than knees, and by day 6 I was up for the full 2 minutes and happy enough with my form. I did a mini mental handshake with myself and agreed never to drop back in intensity or effort for the next 3 weeks.”
