What is the correct posture of flat support?

The movement of the flat plate support is relatively simple. The exerciser only needs to support the ground in a prone position, and then use the strength of toes and elbows to keep his body balanced, while keeping his back straight and level for as long as possible.

However, the longer the plate is supported, the easier it is to deform. For example, the hips are tilted upward or downward, the upper arms and forearms are not at a vertical angle, the head is tilted backward or excessively bent forward, and the body is skewed. These irregular movements may cause cervical or lumbar injuries. The longer the time, the more serious the injuries, which will not only have no fitness effect, but also cause harm to the body.

Extended data

When doing flat support daily, it should be standardized and step by step. On the premise of maintaining the standard posture, each group can do it for 30 ~ 60 seconds. In the meantime, if the supporting action begins to deform, it should be stopped in time. You can rest for 30 seconds in the middle of each group and do 4 ~ 6 groups every day to achieve the purpose of exercise. It should be noted that the elderly and obese people are not suitable for this sport.

It is difficult to stick to flat support for a long time, and it is difficult to lose weight because of single action. In order to achieve the goal of losing weight by exercise, we can use flat support as an auxiliary exercise and choose aerobic exercise that can be carried out for a long time, such as running and skipping rope.
