Comments and tips
The kneeling plank, also known as the knee plank, is a basic exercise that can be performed by beginners to develop stability and core strength.
Since the kneeling plank has a larger base of support (knees and elbows) than the front plank (toes and elbow), the kneeling plank is easier than the front plank.
Make sure that your torso is rigid. Do not let your abdomen sag and do not arch your back.
Keep your shoulders down, maximizing the distance between your shoulders and ears.
Your core and glutes should be contracted throughout the hold.
