Repetition does not transform a lie into a truth.

Day 20 done! I’ve been working ahead and am up to 3 mins. I might make it to 5 but only 1 time🤣

Day 20 done and day 21

[Christophe]

Day 21

3 x 3min30 in 14min.

@Elephanttail Just once 5 minutes for me too! 3 minutes 30 seconds is already so difficult.

Tomorrow my program is 2 x 4 minutes.

[Jesile]

I’ve just checked what’s it gonna be for today and the upcoming days, and I’m not excited…

[Jesile]

Day 21 done! Split in 5 sets of 30 secs! Today I wasn’t in the mood for major efforts!

[Runningfree]

It’s getting rough

[Jesile]

Yes!! But… I haven’t dropped out! And that’s already something! I can still feel those planks!

[Runningfree]

I’m proud of me for not dropping out too! This is the longest I’ve gone in a challenge in a least a year. We got this Only 10 more planks

I did some pilates last night and my core is already sore so I am not looking forward to today’s plank but it will get done….. eventually

@Runningfree

I’m proud of me for not dropping out too!

Well done for not dropping out , though you’ve launched so many challenges, I think you’ve finished more than one! I’m not sure how I’ll handle the 4- minute planks, my plan is 4 sets of 1 minute each! Worst case scenario it’ll be shorter sets! We’ll see…

Day 21 done!

Day 21 done, 3 sets of 1:30 during my workout.

Never be in a hurry; do everything quietly and in a calm spirit. Do not lose your inner peace for anything whatsoever, even if your whole world seems upset.

Day 21 today was a see how long I could go kind of day. I made it down to 48 seconds before pausing the timer and taking a little break and then finished of course lol

Day 22 done

[DanielaJ]

Day 16
Day 19
Day 20
Day 21
Day 22

Lets see how much I can catch up today…
I‘ll keep you posted. (For the record: My personal challenge is „3 sets as long as I can plank“ each day.

Edit: This is not my day today. Will work on the catching up again tomorrow.

[Jesile]

Day 22 not done! I did go for a 40-minute walk after work, but today I didn’t feel like planking! Tomorrow more to come, hopefully better!
