    @Timothyh27 I put on music. I pick a different song each time I squat. Or do them while you are watching TV or a film! I too am not looking forward to the plank tomorrow! I listen to music while I plank too, it helps keep me from staring at the clock!

    Day 16-17... All done with exception to the 2 min plank from 16th... I will make that up on next plank rest day... It was all I could do to get todays plank in... I was proud of myself though for doing a full minute plank and then the second minute i had to break down into 3 20 sec planks.

    Try changing the position of your feet every 10 or 20 squats. I do 10 narrow, 10 wide, 10 sumo and then back again.
