Planking: A Co-ed Sport?

Planking is the "new craze that has some stiffening their bodies and others scratching their heads."
The goal of planking? Simple! It consists of lying face down in an unusual or incongruous location, taking a photo, and posting it on Facebook! The proper positioning includes:
  • Lie face down
  • Expressionless
  • Straighten arms and legs
  • Point fingers and toes
But the question still stands, is planking a co-ed sport? Well, the answer is simple: no.

As witnessed by this following cameraman, planking for women can result in injury and it is a disrespect of the sport.

So what's next? GET OUT AND PLANK! Its time for men, including the readers of boytalk to get out and claim this sport once again. Two of our followers have already started this endeavor.

 On the car.
 On the Don's Johns.
 On the trashcan.
 On the baseball field.
 On the broken basketball hoop.
 On the playground.
In your own home.

We would love to hear from you! Post links your best planking locations and poses in the comments section below!

***WARNING*** Planking is not for everyone, including women, ladies, and females. Please do not plank while driving or operating heavy machinery (light machinery is okay). Happy Planking!
