    I have been doing planks
    30 sec in 15 sec break
    With other static holds but I lose track of posting

    I am up to 50 min of planks and 50 min of holds
    I can only do 3-5 min a day
    I have been trying wall push ups and band pull downs( for a modification pull up) with squat holds
    Plus walking 2 - 3 miles a day
    Happy hump day

    20 minutes of upper body isometric ST & 20 minutes rebounding

    2 days ago I started IF with good results. If my health holds I will build on fasting times

    Did wallsits after a walk (quads were warmed) and managed 5:00! Later, Girvan's 15:00 core (all planks!). Amazing how that was doable (struggled the last 10secs every so often, but I didn's have to do my variations). Soh's 5 min or Reif's 7 min make my lower back hurt!
