You can determine the time based on your fitness level 30 seconds would be the low end and 3 mins for the higher end. I plan on doing 1.5 mins for my holds. Please use the same time all week though and tell the group how long you are holding them for.0 -

Or you could just count these planks towards the planks for the other challeng0 -
Heck yes, I am here for this! Although I am not sure about the sugar or how much I really need to watch it ... but I will try and keep it close. I just need to get back to the checking in with the challenges again. I have SUCKED lately!0

can I ask what everyone is setting their sugar at. MFP has mine at 40. I have had some milk and a banana toady and that alone put it at 36. Not sure how I will go with the sugar as I have logged for the stuff i will eat today and way way way over 40.
I am still losing weight so not sure if my sugar is affectring me too much as most seenms to come from dairy and fruit/veg
meant to add that I found a few articles that say about not counting the sugar in fruit and milk towards the goal that it is 40g max plus your fruit and milk. Grrr maybe this is why I dont track sugar but fibre instead0 -
Sounds good - I am very keen to join in!0
-
sounds good to me I am in!0

i'm in too, will be starting with beginner planks, how long do you hold one plank for? what exercise can you log them as?0
-
ooo I'm in...going to aim for 30 second planks! I also am raising my sugar goal a little bit above what mfp sets...I eat too much fruit to stay under that!0
-
Okay, this should be interesting. I've never watched my sugar or done planks, but I'm game.0
