January Plank Challenge (PlankAwayJanuary)

PlankAwayJanuary Day 20

January Plank Challenge

Day 20 of the #Plankawayjanuary plank challenge is here, and it’s time for another round of the plank exercise. Today’s goal is to do a 70, 140, or 210-second plank, depending on your fitness level. The plank is a great exercise for strengthening and toning the muscles in your core, including your abs, back, and hips, and it’s important to start slowly and gradually increasing the duration as you get stronger to avoid injury.

If you’re just starting out with the plank exercise, Level 1 (70 seconds) may be a good place to begin. Or increase the duration to Level 2 (140 seconds) or Level 3 (210 seconds). Remember to keep your body in a straight line and avoid sagging or arching your back as you hold the plank position. Keep your core muscles engaged and try to maintain good form throughout the exercise.

While the plank exercise is certainly a physical challenge, it is also a mental one. Remember to focus on your breath and try to clear your mind of distractions as you hold the plank position. This will help you stay present and focused, and can even help to reduce stress and improve your overall well-being. Keep up the good work, and don’t forget to take breaks when you need them. Happy planking!
