Planking is the rage these days. Sometimes, it’s done simply by lying face down in odd places, other times with our upper, mid, or lower body lifted or suspended in the air.
The more advanced form of planking is usually more interesting to watch and even provides natural isometric conditioning – if unintentionally and sometimes risking injury.
Modern plankers will no doubt refine and expand their art, and soon will discover that a precursor to planking has been around for a while.
It’s called calisthenics, a long-developed natural health practice that traces its roots back to ancient times (the name comes from the Greek words “kallos” for beauty and “thenos” for strength). Other than walking, calisthenics are the most efficient way to naturally condition the body, with a great basic calisthenics workout taking less than ten minutes.
