Eli5: How does doing planks help with getting abs?
In: 7
It doesn’t help “get abs” aesthetically. Like you won’t get abs doing that alone. It’s a supporting exercise to help make other core exercises more effective. By increasing endurance of all those core muscles, you increase how fast you can improve at other more “direct” sorts of exercises. It’s also just good for your back and posture in general. 100% worth adding to your routine at least occasionally
