Exercise trends come and go, but a solid core exercise is always in demand. While there are plenty to choose from, it's a fact that not all exercises are created equal for this part of the body. Some put strain on our necks (hello, sit-ups) and others only target our abs and obliques (the so-called 'superficial' muscles).
The reverse plank does the opposite. It takes pressure off the wrists or forearms and targets the deep core muscles, which sit below the superficial ones and work to stabilise the spine and support the pelvic floor.
