Apologies for this being so late, and on my shout out on timings.... it’s been a long day!!!

A reminder of the plan:

Week 1: 30 second elbow plank

Week 2: 30 second elbow plank moving to 30 second straight arm plank

Week 3: 30 second high arm plank, then 30 second elbow plank, then 1 minute side plank, then other side ( total 2 minutes)

Week 4: 30 second elbow plank, 30 second straight arm plank,1 minute side planks ( total 2 minutes)

***🔥Week 5: 30 second elbow plank, 30 second straight arm plank,1 minute side planks then 30 second elbow plank***🔥

Week 6: as week 5

Week 7: 30 second elbow plank, 30 second straight arm plank,1 minute side planks ( 30 seconds each side), 30 second elbow plank, then 30 seconds up and down plank.

Week 8: 30 second elbow plank, 30 second straight arm plank,1 minute side planks ( 30 seconds each side), 30 second elbow plank, then 30 seconds up and down plank.

This weeks highlighted by the flame of plank 🔥

Thanks for the demo again ju-ju, its very much appreciated. Now admission: I need to listen to instructions. I had been having trouble with the side planks so decided to build up slowly in 5 second increments and today finally managed to do side planks of a 1 minute each side. Its only after watching your video I realise I need to do only 30 seconds each side! 🤦🏼‍♀️ Feeling really strong now. Week 5 Bring it on!
