30-Day Plank Challenge: Who Is In For This One?



Recommended Posts

Oh my WOW!!! You are already at 300 seconds?!? GEAUX you! Of course, I know you are a fitness fanatic, unlike me, but that's still impressive. :)

Thanks! I started doing planks about 8 months ago. 20 s was a long time. Over several months I surpassed 30 seconds, 60 seconds, 90 seconds, 180 seconds. A few months later, I worked up to 300 seconds. Practice is what it takes. I started in same condition as everyone, but have found fitness to be enjoyable in a somewhat self enlightening manner. And the more time you dedicate towards it, the easier and more enjoyable it becomes. Does not happen over night!! So that is how I got to 300 s over several months. Now I want to stretch my goals more.

I hadn't either before I started it in November. Not easy but what I loved is that progress is very achievable. Little victories all add up :)

I did this last month with GG, and while I definitely saw improvement, I never got beyond about 95 seconds. However...to go from barely holding 20 secs to 95 secs in about 3 weeks was still a great achievement, at least in my opinion. I'm doing a different ab challenge this month, but will continue to plank in solidarity with y'all. Plank on, you sexy plankers!! :D

Today was day #1 of the Insanity workout (fml!) so I might as well plank too, in for a penny ...

GG - did you notice any physical changes from planking?

I can't sat that I did, except that I could plank longer. But I don't think a month is long enough to see huge changes. Besides my body is changing so fast right now, it's hard to know what's causing what, you know?

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
