High plank
The high plank pose strengthens your shoulders, glutes, and hamstrings while relieving pain and stiffness throughout your body. Additionally, it helps with the development of core and back strength and balance, all of which are crucial for good posture.
How to do it:
- Begin by getting down on all fours on the floor with hands stacked directly under shoulders and knees bent and stacked directly under hips.
- Lift your heels, raise your hips, and straighten your legs.
- Set your back straight and tighten your arm, leg, and abdominal muscles.
- Lengthen your neck, relax your throat, and lower your eyes to the ground.
- Make careful to maintain your shoulders back and your chest open.
- Hold this posture for around one minute.
