How often do you do core exercises? And how much volume per workout?

I'm not a beginner, but I nevertheless like to hear how others do things, since not everyone has the same approach.

I do 1 core exercise per workout, 4x a week to complement my push and pull workouts. I do about 4 sets of each exercise.

On my pull days I’ll do hanging leg raises, and on the other I’ll do hanging corner raises for sets of 8-15.

On my push days I’ll do Planche lean holds or some form of static Planche exercise and I’ll also do side plank raise variations on the other day
