A standing-to-floor strength pair that targets calves and core – well suited for a quiet, focused minute when you want to work without moving much.

Calf raises work your lower legs while you're upright, then the plank brings everything to the floor and asks your core to hold steady. Neither move is flashy, but both build the kind of stability you actually use day to day.

Plank-based core work has been linked to better spinal support and reduced lower back discomfort – particularly relevant if you sit for extended periods.
