Little Nemo - this kitten can
I decided to give 20 secs planking and 20 secs resting a go and I just about made it through the 5 mins, although I did have to increase the rest time at the end. I did 2 mins and 20 secs of planking - MUCH tougher than I thought it would be and I'm ashamed at how feeble my effort was :-(

I dread to think how feeble I will be

But LN its a starting point. And over time those times will get longer

I've got a dog boarding with me all day. There's no way she'd let me plank without thoroughly kissing me all over my face for a full 5 mins!

Will wait until she's been collected.

Just over 4 minutes, 4:02:73 to be exact! I found it hard, I could feel my extra pounds!
I started doing a minute with about 15 secs break three times, then I did about 30 secs with a short break then a final just over 30 secs. #shaking all over :-)

So it's finding out how long you can plank for, is that it?

I did 2 minutes and then it hurt like buggery so I gave up. I bloody hate planks, why am I doing it again?
