I haven't done a Fitness Friday in a little bit, so I wanted to update you all on a challenge that I am taking this month. Like many people, I L.O.V.E Pinterest! It's great for everything, and I think is quickly becoming my new favorite search engine for all things creative, fitness, etc. One of the things that I like about Pinterest is that it gives you great ideas for beginner fitness, and I stumbled across this one...
I love this challenge, because it really starts out very basic and slowly increases as you go. Now, in full disclosure, I am not doing the plank pictured above. I am doing it on my knees and elbows, just because my core is not strong enough to start on my toes. But I am hoping that next month I will be able to do a regular plank, and even work up to different types of planks (side planks, etc).
I am on day 6 now, and I can tell already that my core is stronger. When I first started, my body would shake at about 10 seconds. Now my body starts shaking at about 30 seconds in, which is a huge improvement for me!
Try it yourself!
