Turbulence Training Week 4 Day 2

Let me just say that PLANKS SUCK. They’re hard and they’re boring. But I hear they do amazing things for your abs so I torture myself with them. I want to get to 2 minutes for side and regular planks, so I’m going to extend the time I hold the position by 5 seconds each time. At least that’s the plan. For side planks this is not a problem because I can see the clock to time it. For regular planks, I can’t see the clock so I have to count. Let me tell you…I counted the last five really fast. It turns out I was 5 seconds over what I was supposed to do. Yay!

I’ve been really sore and tired…an indication that I’ve been working really hard and not stretching enough. Note to self…don’t let stretching fall by the wayside.
