@DebbieNeedham1 Don't feel too bad for me..LOL! I went to a baseball game last night and was home late. Completely self inflicted! There may have been beer, a hotdog and a soft pretzel consumed last night

@DebbieNeedham1 great job! I did sleep thanks... but still could only mister the energy for 1 60 second plank!!1
-
@Joanna2012B - glad u had a good sleep - well done on the plank!! keep it up!!0
-
Day 9 done! Well done on keeping this going everyone!! I know I wouldn't even try this by myself 1
-
Day 12 - went for the 90 secs - failed - just couldnt do it - got to 60 secs again. Did do an extra 2 x 30 secs for good measure.. rest day tomorrow then will try again. Good luck guys - let me know how u get on x1
-
Day 12 90 seconds done. I had to do it in 3 60 second planks1
-
@Joanna2012B - I like your thinking!! so instead of doing 1 plank of that length - we break it down into shorter planks - so long as we hit or exceed the total??? That makes much more sense!!! and more achieveable!!1
-
Of course @DebbieNeedham1! I would like to be able to do a 90 second plank all at once but I am not gonna stress if I can't! I suspect before the challenge is done we'll be able to!!1
-
OK cool @Joanna2012B - I feel so much better now - I was so dissappointed in myself this morning!!!
0 -
Oh @DebbieNeedham1 you have NOTHING to be disappointed about! You are doing so awesome!! We all have our limitations and you are best to listen to your body. Look at what you have already accomplished!! High Five Girl!!!!! 0

I think today was day 11 for me. I'm losing track. Tomorrow will be my scary jump to 90 seconds (or the closest I can get)! 0

Dont worry if u cant do it in one go - I tried and failed!!!! And I am not the only one - the jump is pretty huge!! so we have said if we can do that amount in total - even if it takes us a couple of goes to total the amount - cos at the end of the day - that's what counts!!!0 -
Made it through day 12! I've been working on some other core exercises for a few months now and I feel like I'm finally making progress. A few months ago I tried a plank and could do 10-15 seconds at a time before needing a rest. All our work does add up!!1
-
Day 14 - struggled a bit today so had to break it down - managed 40secs, 30 secs, 20 secs and 2 x 15 secs - total 120 secs.. Hopefully will manage to increase the time tomorrow0

Day 14 done, 90 seconds. Lost track of the days and thought today was the rest day. Being I thought yesterday was the day before rest I decided to go for it and max out time. Manged 130 seconds, which is about a 60% increase from day 1. Good progress for 2 weeks time!2

Day 15 - really struggled again today - worse than yesterday - don't understand why. Still I managed 90 secs all beit broken down somewhat!! Hope that I start making progress in the right way again.. 0

Day 15 done! @DebbieNeedham1 I found closing my eyes and focusing on slowing my breathing helped get through the entire 90 seconds. If I watch the clock I struggle more. Worth a try! Still doing great my friend!!!1

I am sorry to sound stupid but I have no idea what is meant by plank challenge? Can someone explain please?0
