    I'm doing a ton of ab stuff while I'm unable to do my usual cardio and lower body stuff until I heal, these chair workouts are pretty tough on the abs! Since I'm not doing them every day right now I think I'm going to bow out. Keep planking away everyone!

    I have only started planks recently but have seen much improvement in my core strength. I think doing them daily for the next month will be great. I'm really excited to see how this goes. Have a great month everyone.

    Same! I’ve been surprised at how much improvement just a few days has given me. Anyway:
    May 6: I did another 3 minutes of mixed planks

    Nice! I’m not sure if be able to do that. Usually by evening I’ve used up all my self control for the day.

    For me:
    May 7: 3 minutes of mixed planks
    Total for month: 15 minutes

    At this rate I could do more than 60 minutes in the month, but I just know I’ll miss some days so I’m sticking with 2-3 minutes per day and we’ll see where we’re at in 2 weeks.
