Some people fly right through Plank pose. It's a force to be reckoned with and not to be passed over as if it were unimportant. A good strong plank is not easy. Holding regular old plank for a minute or five takes a tremendous amount of strength. So why pass up this perfect opportunity to refine your abs, strentghten your shoulders and legs and get toned all over?
Read what Yoga International has to say about plank and next time you get into your chaturanga; slow down and work every muscle in your body and do it right. I hold plank for 10-20 slow deep breaths several times during my personal practice. Then this reminds me to give side plank a shot, so I do it too. I even do the ever dreaded forearm plank (which I actually hate) but figured my shoulders needed the work. This breath control calms me. It's very meditative. Me gusta. After a few months of this, I tried pinchamyurasana again. And got up like it was nothing. I almost fell over from shock, as the last time I had tried this pose I flailed like a goofball just trying to get up and quickly returned to chilid's pose with my head down. https://yogainternational.com/article/view/plank-pose?utm_content=buffer92c39&utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook.com&utm_campaign=buffer
