I'm currently 4 minutes into a plank.
Posting to distract myself from the pain.
Now 5 minutes.
6 minutes! Can I go 7?
>>36434792
Is the plank a good way to work up to the ab wheel?
>>36434824
do it faggot
Finished at 7. I think I can do better in the next set.
Here we go again.
2 minutes.
3. Arms are fucking hurting.
I can only do a 1:30 plank
Squats and deadlifts aren't enough
Teach me how to 7 min plank
Made it to 4. Think I'll have to stop at 5...
Fuck it, I'm going for 6.
>>36434975

Another 7 minutes, I'm gonna fucking do it.
>AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
Did it. Need quite a few minutes rest before the next set.
My body was shaking.

Why r u doing this?
Its a meme useless ctossfit sshit housewifes-tier
>>36434963
Do planks at the end of every workout and always add on another 10 or 15 seconds every workout. Past a certain point it becomes more about endurance and perserverence than actual strength.
>>36435052
Planks are godly ab exercises. I want to get to at least 10 minutes.
Alright, going to go again in a little bit.
Keep us updated anon
Here we fucking go! 1 minute in.
2 minutes in.
>>36434827
Yea but ab wheel isn't even that hard?
4. Give me strength Scooby
5 minutes and my shoulders are killing me.
please dont die planking anon
the limiting factor when doing planks are my quads most of the time
am I doing em wrong?
6 minutes. This is really quite unpleasant now.
Alright, I'm at work, but I'll give it a shot, I'll report back with time.
10 MINUTES OR PASS OUT TRYING FAGGOT

>Whenever you are jack skeleton any body >weight exercise is decisively easy.
I guess what i should of said is if you work hard body weight exercises become increasing easy quickly.
When I do planks my lower back fucking kills me, wat do?
>>36434792
Add weight.
>deadlift 60kg as many times you can
>deadlift 180kg as many times you can
You lasted way longer with 60kg, but which one made you stronger and required more muscle mass? Same shit with planks, progressive overload still counts.
If you weight 50kg there's nothing to boast about a 7minutes plank
Try at 88kg 17% fat
>>36435277
Roman chair extensions
>>36435277
Maybe round your back a little? i dont know i have never gone past 4 minutes, and that was a 1rm
Throw a plate on your back.
>>36435251
Are you flexing your glutes? They're supposed to stay tight throughout the entire duration.
>>36435286
There was this faggot in my gym
He started adding pl8s on his back whilst planking
Reached two pl8s
Didn't even ask for a spot
Almost died
That shit has to be done with a PT or a spotter
>>36435297
Aight I'll try next time.
>>36435307
Im only at 1pl8 plank 3x1min but its no problem at all.
how the fuck do you almost die doing it
>>36435277
here>>36435297
>>36435307
That goes for any exercise though. Don't throw on more weight than you can handle. How do you almost die planking though? When you fail you just lie down on your stomach?
OP here, I did 7 minutes. That's enough for one day /fit/.
Pic related, my 7 minute plank core.
>>36435321
>>36435348
the pl8s slipped when he tried to lie down and remove them
he was trying to push them on a side
raised his glutes in a desperate attempt to get himself out of there
suddenly 40kg flipped against his neck
knocked unconscious
I read that planks give you a thick gut and stopped doing them, have I been meme'd again?
>>36434792
Planks are useless past a minute or two. At that point they won't help with anything except doing planks.
>>36435267
well fuck, boss walked in and asked what I was doing. Very awkward situation.
>>36435351
>>36435473
Perfect example of how useless they are past a certain point.
>>36434792
So, if i weigh 300lb, and can plank for a minute, am i a stud??
>>36435520
Not with your 2/10 face.
>>36435538
Fuck you ya twink, im easily a 5/10
>>36434792
Good work. Watch something on your phone/listen to something. May help distract from pain. Keep up the good work.
>>36435351
this doesn't look good somehow, like this looks mildly gross.
>>36435501
>>36435501
Did you tell him you only work for fitness?
>>36435501
Just tell him you dropped some change
>>36435351
