    Day 8 - 45 : 2:15.
    Got a doll put on my back half way through Haha. I'm really looking forward to my next rest day with these. Not sure if I can keep increasing my time, I might just hold here for a bit because it's definitely a massive struggle to keep up for this long.

    Day 17: 2:00 - 2:00
    @ThermoDust "Hurts" might not be the best word. I have always had back discomfort since I was a teenager. Some might call it pain, but I'm going to call it discomfort in this case because I'm sure it is not entirely related to planks.

    @midwesterner85 I'm basically in the same boat. I can't do regular crunches much (or I don't like to) cause no matter what I do the right side of my back makes a noise lol! And it feels weird as it's happening. Happens with high leg kicks or the bicycle legs on your back sometimes too. So I do v sits as it's a still position. Or v sits side to sides too.
    So wonder if planks irritate it? I always feel it in that area first during planks.

    Day 9 1:00 : 2:30 :smile:
    From 1:45 till 2:15 (yesterday's Time) I counted down in 5 secs 30, 25, 20, 15 etc. I find really focusing on counting rather then trying to stay up helps me alot. Then I just took a deep breathe and went for it for the last 15 secs

    @squeekecho262 You've got it! Soooo close.

    @rochihong You'll get there. Give your back a rest and do some stretching. I would suggest some Yoga since a lot of the poses incorporate some kind of plank which also helps with this challenge!

    Day 20: 2:30 - 0:57 (Round 1)
    Day 20: 2:30 - 2:30 (Round 2)

    My damn cats decided that me in a plank was the "purrfect" playground this morning. Hence the "Round 2". (Sorry, couldn't resist the pun. I Hate Mornings!)
