Unity May 2015 6:19pm, 19 May 2015 294 posts	Quote Pin Unity I seem to have done the same as you AR - two full sets plus one basic. I've decided to keep a record of my Plankathon on my blog as another way of motivating myself. I'll just have to do all 14 days now.

Fragile Do Not Bend May 2015 6:39pm, 19 May 2015 168 posts	Quote Pin Fragile Do Not Bend If anything, I found that easier than yesterday's, it was the pressure on my my forearms on the floor that was more limiting than my core. I couldn't do the rolling over thing though.
Flatlander May 2015 6:40pm, 19 May 2015 141 posts	Quote Pin Flatlander One of my yoga teachers sometimes gets us to do rotating planks, i.e., front - side - front - other side - reverse (kills my shoulders!) - first side, then repeat. My Pilates teacher is a bit kinder to us :-), she gives us static side planks but with a raised upper arm and leg. Done the 5 minutes today.

Little Nemo - this kitten can May 2015 7:19pm, 19 May 2015 5,255 posts	Quote Pin Little Nemo - this kitten can That was tough! Just about managed the first set OK although I had to go into my knees to change position. Couldn't stay in position on the side plans for the whole 30 secs on the second set and only managed the front plank on the third set. Had a bit of a rest and then had another go at the last two side plans and did manage the whole 30 secs with a break in between. #AbsOfCardboard
