    "Ok so I am using a 'set' this month:
    30secs straight arm plank
    15secs left side plank
    15secs right side plank
    30secs forearm plank

    That's 1.5 mins. Longer than I have held a single plank so far, but see how it goes. So I am logging as 1, 2 or 3 'sets' :) make it look a bit neater this month."

    And I have been sooooo lazy!

    01/02/2017 rest
    02/02/2017 lazy
    03/02/2017 lazy
    04/02/2017 2 sets
    05/02/2017 lazy
    06/02/2017 lazy
    07/02/2017 3 sets
    08/02/2017 lazy
    09/02/2017 lazy

    Running total: 7.5 minutes

    I call it mixed planks, I usually start with forearm planks, then go to straight arm, then down to forearm again and then to side planks, left then right and repeat until I'm done. I do an 8 minute one and a 2 minute one for 10 minutes total. There's no way I could hold a single position for 8 minutes but I figure since I don't stop switching it up works all of the ab muscles evenly.
