- Reading: Is planking supposed to fill out my core?
I've been focusing a bit more on my core/stomach area recently and I'm at a loss. I thought planking would fill me up nicely but it only seem to help the center abs and not the sides.
Any tips for a bodyweight fag?

If by "sides" you mean obliques then no, planks are not for obliques, google some obliques exercises. Also stop doing bodyweight and just go buy some weights

I may have black genes because bodyweight is giving me good results so far. Thanks though, now that I see some oblique exercise I feel retarded expecting anything from planking.

Planking activates 20+ muscles in the core.

so why does it still look like someone carved out my sides with a butcher knife? Just doing it wrong?

Are you doing side planks? Try bicycle crunches too.

Is there a bigger meme joke of a core "exercise"?
You will only see weak or fat ducks doing planks because they are worthless.

planks are an assistance exercise for OHP, deadlift, and other exercises where you have to flex your core
Weighted planks
