Planks a lot

Do you know what a fad is? According to my dictionary, a fad, also known as a craze, is an intense and widely shared enthusiasm for something that is practiced or followed for a time. For example, the hula hoop was a big fad in the 1950’s and more recent fads were Crocs (those funny looking plastic shoes) or flash mobs....the list goes on and on.

So, tell me, have you seen or practiced the current fad of planking, which is simply lying face down in an unusual location? The more original the location, the better, so, to be official, here are the guidelines:

You must lie face down.

Your legs must remain straight and together with your toes pointed.

Your arms must be placed by your side, held straight with your fingers pointed.

  Check out the funny planking locations and give it a try before this fad becomes passé (unfashionable; unpopular). I really don't understand why it's so popular, but the locations are funny.
