Planks are one of the best exercises for building deep core strength, but did you know that you can do planks in reverse?

Reverse planks target the back of your body (also known as your posterior chain), working muscles like your hamstrings, glutes, lats and deltoids. Your core muscles like the rectus abdominis will have to kick in too, making the reverse plank a true full body exercise.
