Day 23 Plank Challenge Full Body Flow

How good is your plank position?

You will need a yoga block today for today’s Yoga Plank Challenge Yoga Flow class. Squeezing a block between your thighs will help you (in plank position) to protect your lower back and allow you to engage the legs which provides a stronger foundation for your plank positions. Plank helps to create a stronger core around the lower back and abdominal area. The engagement of the legs and inner thighs will in turn allow you to hold the plank position for longer.

We warm the wrists initially and take Surya Namaskar, and we have two x 1 minute planks, one on hands and one on elbows and forearms and we finish with a 2 minute plank, where you can choose to be on hands or forearms. We also open the hips and work the abs. It is a warming and strengthening yoga class and with practice you will be able to hold your planks for over 3 minutes when we return to the studio! This yoga sequence is designed to work the body from the head to the toes. It is suitable for all. Be kind to yourself and take the posture/pose or sequence variation that is right for you today. This yoga lesson finishes with a short relaxation/ yoga nidra meditation.
