Instructions
1. Place a vibration plate machine on a flat surface, and switch it on to a comfortable vibration intensity for your fitness level.
2. Step up to the vibration plate and rest your forearms on the center of the platform, ensuring that your elbows are aligned directly under your shoulders.
3. Extend your legs behind you, coming onto the balls of your feet so that your body forms a straight line from heels to head.
4. Engage your core muscles, squeeze your glutes, and keep your hips level with your shoulders to avoid sagging or piking up your hips.
5. Maintain a neutral neck alignment by gazing down slightly forward of the vibration plate.
6. Hold the plank position for the desired amount of time while the vibration plate challenges your stability.
7. Once finished, carefully step down from the vibration plate and turn off the machine.
Tips: Ensure that the vibration intensity is not too high as to cause discomfort. Breathe steadily throughout the exercise to maintain core engagement and stability. Gradually increase the duration of the plank as your core strength improves. Stop the exercise if you feel any pain or discomfort beyond muscle fatigue.
