    Days 1-7 done. Funny how little planking it takes to feel it.

    Day 7 done here too. I was totally looking at the clock after 20 sec, but I made it!
  • So I did planks for a few days, with extras thrown in to encourage my son and husband to join me. Ha ha these guys are so easily challenged when they see chubby me planking apparently effortlessly lol So then I missed the last two days. A full weekend of family activities preoccupied me. Will start up Monday. I actually found the planks easy. I must be in better shape then I thought. I swim a lot, so my arms are sturdy now, lol, but I'm still round in the middle.

    Whoops, it's still the 12th here, I missed Day 7, darn it! I can still do Day 8! I just did one big one to failure, I didn't even use a watch... I counted 15 super deep and slow breaths, about 6 seconds each breath, so 90s is still my one-off limit.
