When thinking of core-strengthening movements, the plank is the most popular and most wide-known move to date. However, there are 5 strong alternatives to the plank that have the potential of really focusing on core strength in ways that the plank can’t match. These moves include hand walks with elevated knees, plank pushups, advanced side planks, advanced crab, and reverse-plank leg lifts. Most of these moves have the added benefits of affecting other muscle groups other than just the core, making for a more full-body workout.
