    Just curious. How many calories did today's planking burn?

    I don't know, but it was 51 seconds.

    If you are looking to add it for calorie burn, it's going to be minimal so I wouldn't bother adding just that.
    Are you trying to include it in your strength training?

    I use "plank" under cardio (strength training does not allow you to show any calories burned). I use 5 calories for a 1 minute plank. I mean, it has to do SOMETHING more than sittng on the couch.

    I'm really just wanting to keep note of it, but it sure is more work than sitting on a couch ;)

    Thanks guys!
