Dont panic I can barely do a plank for 1 minute let alone 60. :sad:

If you are like me my core is the worse and training it is dreadful. Thats why I want to do a challenge for the month of September, 60 minutes of planks starting September 1. Break them up however you like, if you can do more GO FOR IT! If you are a core baby go for as many as you can to build up your strength.

It sounds like alot but it really isn't. Its almost 1-2 minutes a day depending on your workout schedule.

Please join me in this quest to become pool party fine :wink:

    Oh, count me in! I was just thinking the other day that I should be holding the plank position everyday, no matter what kind of work out I am doing, but I haven't been motivated to start! So, thanks to you, it's plank month!!!!

    ok, so I've NEVER planked before. I would love to build some core strenght and this seems like the way to do that. I'm almost willing to accept this challenge even tho i've never done one, as long as someone tells me the "correct" way to plank. was counts as a real plank? lol thanks.
