    Yeah, I'm not up to that yet. I just about collapsed out of my final 30 second plank. I did the 1:15 rested about 30 seconds and went into the next 30 seconds, rested for 30 and finished up with the 30 seconds.

    I'm impressed with the 8 minutes of planks. Nice core strength. Something for me to shoot for.

    Jan 30 - 2 minutes side plank (1 min, 35 sec, 25 sec)
    Jan 31 - 2.25 minutes side plank (1 min 15 sec, 30 sec, 30 sec
    Feb 1 - 4 min (2 min shoulder tap/tap pushup, 2 min plank hold/plank walk)

    Month total: 8.25 minutes

    Today's planks were during my Focus T25 workout. I'm counting the shoulder tap push ups as plank since I suck at push ups, so the majority of that time was in plank position. There are additional plank walks and tap push ups in the "burn out" that I didn't count, so I think it works out.

    Hi everyone! I'm totally new to planks, but this seems fun and I really need something like this to hold me accountable for something! Since I'm a total newb, I'm not getting too ambitious, I'll just stick with the 60 minutes and see how I do! I will shoot for 2 minutes a day, which leaves me with an extra 4 minutes I'll have to do. I'll throw those in somewhere. I'm looking forward to this, good luck everyone!!
