How Do Two Champions, In Their Own Respected Sports (Boxing & Judo), Train Planks?
Weighted.
Weighted Isometric Abdominal Planks.

Often Overlooked.
One Of The Most Effective Ways To Increase Strength In:
A Specific Muscle Group
A Specific Exercise
A Specific Range Of Motion
In Order To Progress, Blast Through Any Sticking Point, In Any Movement Or Exercise.
For Example:
A Timed Hold, With Weight On Your Back, In A Barbell Back Squat.
Pushing A Barbell Into The Pins Of Your Power Rack,
Driving Hard For Further Recruitment, In A Sticking Point Of A Bench Press,
Etc.
Isometric Abdominal Planks Is One Of The Many.
Where We See Others Go Wrong, When Performing Planks, Is The Lack Of Involvement From The Rest Of The Body.
Without Giving The Full Dissertation, On This Subject, Here Is A Good Start:
•Get Your Body Fully Involved.
Squeeze Everything.
Even Your Fists.
Squeezing Your Grip Sends A Signal To Contract Everything Else In Your Body.
Fact.
•Straighten Out 'Ya Neck And Stop Looking Up.
•Squeeze Your Stomach And Ass At The Same Time.
As If You Were Gonna Get Punched In The Stomach And Slapped Hard On Your Ass.
It's Not Really A Plank, If You Have A Saggy Ass, Hyperextended Low Back, And Fully Extended Abdominals.
