How to Do Plank on an Incline
The plank on an incline should begin with good posture to avoid injury. Brace the spine by drawing your lower abdomen inward. Your core muscles should be activated to support your posture as you perform the exercise.
If any pain is experienced, immediately stop the plank on an incline.

2. Ascertain that the equipment is secure and will not move once it is in place. Hold this stance while engaging your core and squeezing your butt.
