I haven't tried it a lot yet, but my feet tend to really just slip away when doing a plank. It's just one unstable position, with maybe too much stress on the feet.
Any tips for getting better support with my feet?

thanks for the replies!
yea I guess I just have to keep at it so I get better with the exercise and also stronger with the muscles used with doing planks.
Using a wall is a good idea. Perhaps I could use that to get into the vibe of doing planks, or perhaps I should just plunge into the deep and do the exercise just fully without any support. Just a bit of experimenting will help me along the way.

Another thing you could try is doing a suspended plank with TRX if you have this in your gym. Assume the plank position, but with your feet in the TRX loops. It's a progression of the plank, since it's more wobbly, so it's a bit harder, but you might find it easier if your feet are slipping due to your toes being uncomfortable in a hyperextended position.
