Today's planks were, again, more tough on the arms than the core. Think that's it, if the challenges are 30 days. Will keep doing some of these moves as part of my core and strength work.
Arjin Dec 2015 10:22am, 30 Dec 2015 228 posts	0 Arjin Just about to do the final day of squats but it does look a bit of an anti-climax with 5 of each squat. A day off and then it's onto the next challenge. My shoulder is still bad so no planks yet. I will look for a new abs one...

I'm pleased that this one never required any longer than that. The appealing thing about it was the variety but some of them have been pure evil.
