Track your plank hold time with this simple timer. The plank is one of the most effective core exercises, and tracking your hold time helps you measure progress.
How to Use
- Get into plank position (forearms or hands on the ground)
- Tap "Start" when you begin holding
- The timer counts up, showing total hold time
- Tap "Stop" when you can no longer hold
Proper Plank Form
- Keep your body in a straight line from head to heels
- Engage your core by pulling your belly button toward your spine
- Don't let your hips sag or pike up
- Breathe steadily throughout
Progression Guide
Beginners: aim for 20-30 seconds. Intermediate: 1-2 minutes. Advanced: 3+ minutes. Form is more important than duration - a 30-second plank with perfect form is better than a 2-minute plank with poor form.
