Good thing this thread is not time dependent, with restarts. It's been a crazy past couple of days and I'd be pressing the restart button. However, I managed to get in one plank last evening. One tripod plank at 60 seconds. Because I'd gone to pilates earlier and we'd done a few abs intensive exercises, I didn't have the energy to try another. Anyway, I'll be back at the planking later today.
I too find it difficult as well not to compete with others on this thread, but it really is about competing with your own results of yesterday or a week ago (forget 10 years ago for now). Like Barb, I'm a long time regular exerciser, and am disappointed I can't do more. But I'm making progress....
For the record, I use the stopwatch on my phone, which is located just beyond my clasped hands. I raise my trunk into position, tap the start button, and then clasp my hands and hold and hold and hold and hold.....
Carry on, fellow planksters!
