How Many Calories Does Planking Burn?

The number of calories burned during planking depends on several factors, including your body weight, fitness level, and the duration of the exercise. Here is a general estimate of the calorie burn for a 60-second plank:

- For a 150-pound person: Approximately 5 calories burned per minute

- For a 180-pound person: Approximately 6 calories burned per minute

- For a 200-pound person: Approximately 7 calories burned per minute

This means that a 60-second plank could burn approximately 30-42 calories for a 150-pound person, 36-48 calories for a 180-pound person, and 42-56 calories for a 200-pound person.

Keep in mind that the calorie burn can vary depending on your effort level and the exact variations of the plank you are performing (e.g., high plank, elbow plank, side plank). Additionally, planking primarily engages the core muscles and may not significantly contribute to overall calorie expenditure compared to more dynamic exercises that involve larger muscle groups.
