Forget crunches! Build your strongest core ever with 100 Planks! It includes 100 of my all-time favorite plank variations with lots of tips for beginners, correcting movement patterns, planks for weight loss, preventing back injuries, and much more. I've been teaching abs classes for nearly 20 years so I've had a lot of time to see what works, what doesn't, and what lights up the eyes of my participants as they strive for goals they didn't even know they wanted to achieve. Also included are sample plans of where to start as a beginner, and standing modifications and tips on wrist health for those who have trouble being on the floor. All planks are assigned levels 1-4 to help you choose wisely and progress safely. When you purchase the book, you'll also get access to video tutorials on all 100 planks and more!

"The process of investigation, analysis, and testing makes Architecture Research Office (ARO) as much a laboratory as a design firm. For Stephen Cassell, Adam Yarinsky, and their team, the starting point of each commission is not the development of an abstract "idea" for the project, but an intensive, hands-on occupation with a project's conditions, with its physical, economic, and social contexts. This practical approach to making architecture, to shrinking the distance between thinking and building, is much evident in their work, which manages to be simultaneously thoughtful and sensual." "The seven projects featured in this, the first monograph on the work of this firm, range from self-directed research (ARO's paper wall project), to private living spaces (the SoHo Loft), to commercial interiors (the Qiora Store and Spa), to the popular U.S. Armed Services Recruiting Station in Times Square, to the stunning Colorado House in Telluride. All of these projects challenge design conventions, while delighting the senses with their unusual materials, careful detailing, and unexpected spatial discoveries."
