    So here is my 1st entry
    ►100 Push-Ups (200/400)
    ►100 Planks (24/160=12/L80=12/R80=20/B80)
    First week I will be doing 1 minute and 30 second holds. I will increase time through month
    ►100 Squats (50/400)
    ►100 Burpees (0/400)

    400 core per week = 1600 core exercises for the month

    Just added more and I plan to try to get even more of these knocked out today. I have to update as I go though or I will forget.

    I think there are modifications you can do to assist your back, you can use something to support yourself and also do it in lesser times, it still counts!
    I don't want anyone to get hurt pushing too hard!

    So I have a question for everyone.

    How would you all feel if we modify the plank time requirement?

    Not because we can't do it, but (I know for my schedule) that the time is killing me.

    I was thinking we can cut the time in half?

    1:30 min for Forward Plank
    45 sec for side(s), back?

    I would like your guys input!! :flowerforyou:

    Here's where I'm at so far:

    Planks: 55/100
    Burpees: 155/200
    Squats: 330/400
    Push ups: 533/400


    Man, these planks are KILLING ME! I have severe scoliosis and have been working on my core strength and back strength, but I also have severe diastasis recti from pregnancies and can't do traditional ab work. Oh well, onward and upward...
