    I would say a three second pause or as long as you can hold it in the correct form :)

    If you are having trouble doing planks, you can always pivot yourself on your knees instead of your feet. Makes it a lot easier. Kind of like how doing pushups on the knees is a lot easier than doing pushups pivoting on the toes.
