TEAM CHALLENGE!!
Our second team challenge is.... SIDE PLANKS! You dont know what a Side Plank is? Here is an explanation.
1.Begin by laying on your side (on the floor)
2.Position your elbow on the floor, below your shoulder.
3.Lift up on your elbow and keep your body stiff, from head to toe.
4.Hold this for 10 seconds, then lower your hip to the floor.
5.Then do this three times.
6.Switch to the other side, repeat the above.

Each 10 second side plank counts as one.
Just do the best you can. I am not going to tell you how many to do, but I will throw in an iccentive, the person that does the most side planks, must email me by the 20th. In the subject, you will tell me how many side planks you did for the week. This person will have Immunity. The person with the second most side planks will have a 1lb advantage. Sound good?
