Inaugural plank! :smile: 1 min 10 secs

Debating if I should take a belly shot or at least measure my belly.... Should we have some sort of starting and ending measure to see our progress?? Thoughts?

    53 seconds. And I'm certainly not in a great shape - I started shaking when it passed about 20 secs.

    1 minute 15 seconds. Doing for awhile, but when I started 40 seconds was my max.

    First one, not first one ever, first one in this group...1 min. Might have done better if I didn't decide to do it right after dinner...but then again maybe not :-)

    1 minute 11. Plenty shaky after a bit, but I toughed it out and kept my core nice and tight until the bitter end hahaha. I think I'm gonna like this challenge. :)

    Ok, first I searched Youtube to find out how to do a plank (yeah, yeah, I know it's been a LONG time away from gym), but I did my first one:

    1 minute

    Yay me! :happy:

    30 seconds is what I aimed for and what I got. I'll try longer tomorrow.

    Cool group idea, btw. :)
