    Congrats @Spliner1969 !! Always the one leading the charge! Well done!

    @alipsie19 - now I'm going to reign you in...don't get any ideas while you are running a fever of doing planks...just rest and heal first!!

    Well done everyone for continuing through the holidays and getting it done!! I had grand plans to get some done at my mom's but it didn't happen. But we'll see if I can get a few done in these final days of the month, and start anew in Jan / 2017.

    New plank thread for January posted. http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10493414/60-minutes-per-month-plank-challenge-january-2017/

    I also included a link to @Serenade_N's plank challenge thread too in the initial post!

    Here's hoping my January is better than my November or my December! :)

    Great job everyone!!

    I got an extra 5 minutes done earlier today (for 35 minutes total), and will log in with a final total for me at the end of the night. I'm doing some work tonight as I have nowhere else to be, and need to make up some hours from slacking off earlier this week (the bane of being self-employed). Now that the cats are fed, I'm hoping my next few breaks will be plank workout breaks, just so I don't look like a complete wimp for starting the challenge and only getting it half done. (To me, anyone who starts a challenge has the responsibility to see it through to completion, but that's me.)

    Hope everyone is enjoying their New Year's Eve (and frankly I am also, since I love the work I do), and has a wonderful New Year!!

    Argh, final totals not what I wanted, but had a lot of distractions tonight. Only got in one more set of 5 minutes (was shooting for 4 sets total). At least it was better than November. Tomorrow, er, um, Today is a new day...and a new month...and a new year! See you in the January thread!!
    Tried a new dynamic plank today - the straight arm with overhead reach. I think I like it...can feel it across my chest as well as my core.


    1 December: 3 minutes (3 x 60 sec - straight arm)
    2 December: 3 minutes (3 x 60 sec - straight arm)
    3 December: Rest Day
    4 December: Rest Day
    5 December: 3 minutes (3 x 60 sec - straight arm)
    6 December: 3 minutes (3 x 60 sec - straight arm)
    7 December: 2 minutes (2 x 60 sec - straight arm)
    8 December: None
    9 December: 7 minutes (2 x 30 sec - side; 4 x 30 sec - forearm; 4 x 60 sec - straight arm)
    10 December: Rest Day
    11 December: Rest Day
    12 December: Missed - Headache
    13 December: Did Absolutely NOTHING, probably a bit burned out from AR challenge (8 weeks) working out
    14 December: 5 minutes (2 x 30 sec - side; 2 x 30 sec - forearm; 3 x 60 sec - straight arm)
    15 December: 4 minutes (2 x 30 sec - forearm; 3 x 60 sec - straight arm)
    16-30 December: Slug
    31 December: 10 minutes (4 x 120 sec - straight arm dolphin; 2 x 60 sec - straight arm with overhead reach)

    Left to Goal: 20 minutes
