25 Days of Fitness Challenge – Day 1 Plank

Cross Training

1 Dec

Hello! Yesterday I went to hang out with my tiny niece. She was camera shy so here’s a sad consolation prize of my excited face.

And I ate nachos. Busted.

So, I really need this 25 days of Fitness Challenge to help me stay on track in December! Who’s with me?

25 Days of Fitness with RunEatRepeat

Printable 25 Days of Fitness Calendar

Day 1 – Do a plank, keep good form and record how long you can hold it.

(Once again, Vegas crashes the party. I think he wants to start a blog.)

Question: Are you in for the 25 days of fitness? Did you do your plank today?

    My cat can never leave me alone when I am trying to exercise at home. He lays down on my yoga mat, rubs against my face constantly, and tries to convince me that I should stop what I’m doing and feed him 🙂

    Yes! Just did my first plank for the challenge and my arms are definitely weak, definitely need to step it up! Also, what kind of mascara do you use? My eyelashes need it!

    Planks are my favorite. My puppy dog always tries to get in her licks whenever I’m on my exercise mat too. It makes for some fun attempts at yoga and stretching….
