Day 15 done. Getting tougher. Gotta keep breathing
Day 15 done. I’m still doing the hollow body holds and finding I can do a single rep for the time goals for the day. I might be gaining a little bit of core, who knows?
A favorite for today:
Blow, winds, and crack your cheeks! rage! blow!
You cataracts and hurricanoes, spout
Till you have drench’d our steeples, drown’d the cocks!
You sulph’rous and thought-executing fires,
Vaunt-couriers to oak-cleaving thunderbolts,
Singe my white head! And thou, all-shaking thunder,
Strike flat the thick rotundity o’ th’ world,
Crack Nature’s moulds, all germains spill at once,
That makes ingrateful man!
William Shakespeare, King Lear
I personally find the hollow hold easier but you are probably getting stronger too. ![]()
Day 15
- during work cause I wanted a break ![]()
Today I did a combination of a forearm plank and then went up on extended hands when I wanted to quit. I think varying my pose while holding my core might be the secret to success for me. I had an extra little spring in my step today. I can see my body changing for the better. ![]()

In winter with warm tears I’ll melt the snow
And keep eternal spring-time on thy face.

Day 16 done ![]()
I do it in splits now too. Much better and same result ![]()
Day 16 in the books.
Day 16
a min on elbows, 30 in high plank and then back to low
@TrustyBird I also find I can hold longer if I do low plank/ high plank.
For sure. And my stomach muscles are really feeling it today. I owe myself a 2 minute plank when I get home from work. I gave myself the morning to rest up. ![]()
Day 14 done.
I did it! It was a bit harder after 8 hours on my feet but it is done. I’ll keep my planking to the morning from now on.
Day 17
made it to a min 30 before having to switch to high plank.

Day 16 & 17 done. Got stuck in work all day yesterday so broke them up. One before workout today, one after workout.
Day 18
broken into two. Whew!
Day 18 done. How did we do 5 min. We’ll see in 12 days
I went with Madonna a year ago, I think.
Day 18 done. I’m trying to find songs that correspond with the time
. Green Day Sassafras roots, exactly 2 minutes 34 seconds. I’m not gonna be able to go much longer without breaking it up or going into hollow plank. ![]()
