    I'm joining in. Started today. Hope my technique is right. Haven't exercised properly in years. Also doing 30 day squat challenge too. Need to start somewhere, right?


    That's what I'm doing too, thought cos I was on holiday it should be easy, well it's not. I haven't exercised properly for 2 months, excuses all the way, so my own fault but I am getting there:))

    I dont understand what everyone finds so difficult in a plank.

    So you don't need this challenge then? Cool!

    I heard doing plank has lots of benefit, but I was trying to find what there are especially in weight lost.
    And how to check (without mirror) if I am doing the plank correctly.
