    Day 5 is done. I really struggled with this one because I did T25 Ab intervals yesterday and I'm still a bit sore... But this means I'm getting stronger, right? ;)

    Awesome job! Did T25 Ab Intervals one of these days too (I'm doing a hybrid T25 with les mills combat) and felt it too!

    Uh, so day 5 beginner didn't go so well. I'm thinking that maybe I need to increase my rest time. First one was tough, did a 15 sec rest, and fell at 30 secs in the 2nd one. Even last week, I couldn't have done 40 seconds, so I'm still pretty proud. I'm thinking that when I wake up later today, I may try again. Just shorten my other ab exercises. :)

    Any progress is progress, better than nothing for sure! Just do your best, keep at it, and you will see improvements!

    @hoyalawya2003 that's fine! Did you do it?

    How did everybody do today?

    Yesterday was rest and today I was actually looking forward to it. Advanced ... somewhatish :) .. 5 of 60secs + 2 of 30secs. Started with 15 rest, increased to 30 rest at the end

    Great job!! Still on Advanced yesterday, even though the last 4 were 30 secs only. Increased rest time too to 30s. Will keep trying to nail the advanced completely! :) A good morning to all!

    Didn't get online yesterday. Completed both the 19th and 20th. :) 45 secs was completely doable after the day of rest.

    Haha .. In the FB group, since there's pictures, there were a few challengers posting their kids doing planks with them. Hilarious :)

    Glad to see someone sticking to advanced....am finding beginners fairly easy...obviously need a middle ground!!!

    I thought today would be 'easier' since the time was less even though we were doing 3 sets. Nope. Not easier.
    Hate Planks. But it is done for today!
