Core-strengthening exercise (5)

I believe the answer is:

plank

(Other definitions for plank that I've seen before include "Policy; board" , "Length of wood" , "flat piece of timber" , "Proverbially thick piece of wood" , "Long piece of timber" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today and the LA Times.
