Plank Challenge
INSPIRED BY our burpee challengers, for the month of June we are starting a gym wide core PLANK Challenge.
You can begin whenever you want – on your first day, find your max effort Plank Hold. If you can go past 5 minutes, then add weight. (low plank or high plank, your choice).
Hold a plank every day following your Day during the month of June. Add 10 seconds to your plank each day. If you miss a day that is fine just add 20 seconds the next day. If you went weighted on Day 1, stick with that weight throughout the month.
If you started on June 1, you should be at your initial max plank + 50 seconds for today (Tuesday). Keep adding 10 seconds each day.
