    @Katmary71 I do pushups randomly, some workouts include them, other times I just get on the floor (when alone) and start pushing 😁

    This is a cool thread! I'll aim for the 60 minutes since I'm new. Checking my diary I havent actually done any planks yet this month- about time! And Katmary71 - my dog loves to crawl under me when I'm doing planks too! I think she thinks she's helping....

    Thanks all who came up with this and keep it going. Great idea
