Ahh the plank — a word that elicits a look of horror in the eyes of my clients when I explain that a 30-second plank awaits. As a personal trainer, I can tell you that a plank is an excellent core movement, however, to really up the ante, a wall plank is a great exercise to incorporate into your workout routine.
A wall plank, as the name suggests, involves a wall. Instead of feet resting on the ground, as they would in a regular plank, feet are pressed against a wall in line with your body.
