[Ongoing] Spartan Plank Challenge

[Zendikara]

Bekah, my memory sucks big time. the only reason I do them daily is because they are on my daily to-do list (check out habitrpg.com if you don't have one).

 

 

Thanks!!

That site is awesome!!!!!

3 days of no reporting, but I'm still training! Actually this challenge is keeping me engaged in activity, even on days where I misbehave and skip my workout I'll still do at least this, so thanks Bekah (how are you doing with the challenge?).

 

Anyways... report:

 

From the 12th till now I've only managed to add 20 secs to my plank (so I'm at 2:20). Man, this whole planking business thing is haaaaard. But I'm almost 50% there (I feel like resting a bit and then having another go just to see if I can squeeze those extra 10 secs today), so I'll keep going. (even though Ocelot is probably waaay ahead of me... afterall dfl > dnf >dns)

 

 

Update: It took all I had and then some more, but I "collapsed" at 2:31! so halfway-there celebration time! (or better yet, halfway-there-much-needed-rest time)

I managed 120 seconds a few days ago, and did 90 seconds before work today. I'm adding 10 seconds a day at the moment, so I'd like to shoot for this PvP in the next challenge. I'm hoping to beat the NF 10 minute plank record. Slowly but surely...

[Cookiebreaker]

wooo soo close. made it 240 seconds. finding it out its more of a mental struggle to push trough the shaking and pain. lol.

[PettyMort]

150 seconds tonight! That's halfway!

[erosan]

150 seconds tonight! That's halfway!

congratulations! I still have to do my session tonight, hopefully I'll do good too.

[erosan]

Wohoo! over 3 minutes! (182 secs is barely over 3 mins, but it counts, right?).

 

I'm gonna have to step up my game if I want to finish in a month (and before the 6WC)! I'm feeling confident though

[PettyMort]

160! I'm way ahead of schedule but have never felt stronger. It's definitely a mind over matter thing. Slow steady breaths and music are helping me

[Terah]

Love this challege. Mind if I join you?

[erosan]

here comes a new challenger! welcome terah.

[Terah]

First plank 16 seconds. 

I have a lot of practicing to do

[Cookiebreaker]

feeling epic. made the complete 300 seconds. barley!!

[erosan]

great scott! congratulations mate!

[Cookiebreaker]

thanks i really liked the workout this gave my abs felt like it worked everything from my hip flexors to my upper abs. 

[Terah]

Wow, great job! How many days did it take you?

[erosan]

starting the day with a 206 sec plank. almost there!

[Cookiebreaker]

it didnt take long as i normally work abs 3 days a week. i use the ab wheel along with focused ab contractions. this was more of a see if i could thing.
