    Do pushups count as planks?

    12 weeks post-op and I'm almost back to full strength. I struggle to hold a plank for over a minute but getting there.

    @dewit Did you do Joanna Soh's old plank video as well? I tried it the other day, it has side planks so it gives you a break from straight arm planks but still had the harder up/down and jumping jacks.

    Ditto plus exercise ball planks with tips of toes on ball, weren't as bad as regular though.

    @Katmary71 : thanks for the tip. Didn't know about it. Will definitely look it up, side planks is what I do now to make it through the 4 mins. I did not pursue my goal with her new one, will have to work on that after Easter.

    @dewit sounds like it would perfect for you then! I'm pretty good at side planks but my ab video has side planks with leg lifts, those are hard to hold for very long. I never know whether to do the ab video or plank challenge first as each has tough ones I'd prefer to do last.
