Important Note: To do all of these 3 workouts effectively, start from the most energy-consuming to less. For me, the plank is the most energy-consuming workout so start from the plank and then squat and finally wrist curl. Do this workout for 4 days every week. Divide your workouts evenly. For example, start your workout on Monday, rest on Tuesday and start again on Wednesday, and so on. You will experience muscle sores so it is very important to rest well. Feel your muscles and act accordingly.
