A t-plank, better known as the front plank, is a great exercise to strengthen your overall body and tighten your belly.

It can also help you achieve a firm and bigger butt. It is effective and safe because it uses only your own body weight to increase strength in your arms, chest, back, legs, and abdomen.

However, if you want to take things up a notch, you can always add a few dumbbells to push yourself to the extreme. A T-plank is performed by holding the body in a push-up position. Your legs can be spread wider than in a push-up in order to improve balance and increase stability.

The next thing you do is lift your right arm and, while turning your body in the same direction, lift it up and over your head.
