    I...hate...planks...:sad: I can just about do one for a minute - can't ever imagine being able to hold one longer that that! I'll give it a go though.

    Missed Day 10, but I will use the Rest/Catch-up day later this week. I am able to do 1 min (barely) - scared to do 1.5 today!

    Been doing these just not reporting in. Sorry. I am having to take it a bit slower then the schedule do to a old shoulder injury that is flaring up. So I have been doing each day two days in a row, with maybe a rest day that wasn't scheduled to let the shoulder rest. But I am improving over all. Not only in time but form and difficulty. Thanks for posting this.

    B-but t-that's already better than where a lot of us started. You can do it!

    And omg, getting interrupted halfway through a low plank is just the pits. Gonna high plank in the mean time then try to go low later.

    How can we log a "plank" in the "add exercise" section? A PLANK is not an option. Any ideas???

    Have been doing this, am on Day 8 now (first day of 45 seconds). Did the 45 seconds twice today - which when I started with 20 seconds seemed completely impossible.

    I log it under plank with the number of seconds as reps -

    I have been doing the plank challenge for 10 days and was doing anywhere from 1-5 a day 3 in the morning and 2 at bedtime. Once I got to 60 seconds it got harder to do 3 right after each other Does the challenge call for one a day?
