30 Day Plank Challenge
-
After I posted that comment I did some searching of myself and found the same thing. Supposedly they have sent the app bug fixes however last I checked it still has not been released.
On that note my husband and I are just following the calendar one but starting wherever we tested into. Fucker started at two minutes!. -
Men! Ugh!
He’ll be sorry later 🙂
-
Day 9 done! 😀
-
Good job everyone!!! I’ve been doing my planks.. Working up to about 2 min. I’m sore! I couldn’t get the app to work, so now I’m just using my stop watch and taking a screen shot of the times for my record.
Good work to everyone!!! -
The app update is available and it now works. Woohoo! 😀
-
OMG!! It’s been almost three years since I did a plank and I did my starting one on the app and I did 82 seconds!
Wow!! I’m so surprised! Haha! 😀
-
I might take a pic of my buried abs tomorrow and post it here like others have. 🙂
It’ll be cool to see the changes. 🙂
-
Ok so now with the new update my app doesn’t work. Guess I will just do 2 minutes a day. Think that’s good enough. I don’t think I could do 5 anyways.
-
You need the app dated 7/16. They had pushed out one on the 9th that killed everyone’s app. See if you can update yours again.
-
It updated yesterday with the latest version and that killed it 😞
-
The update made mine start working, but then today when I opened it up, it crashed almost immediately. It kept doing the same several times.
I’ve reinstalled it, and that fixed it, but I’m hoping it doesn’t just the same thing tomorrow. :-/
-
If anyone wants me to type up the challenge timings on medium (what mine’s set to) for plank, I can do. That way we can keep going even if the app doesn’t cooperate!
-
That’s a great idea, Anzania! Although it depends on what people’s starting time is as to how the challenge progresses.
In other news, I opened the app again just now and it didn’t crash. Let’s hope it continues that way!
-
So, in case anyone has an app crash in future:
Start test = X secs
Day 1 = X
Day 2 = X + 20 secs
Day 3 = X + 40 secs
Day 4 = X + 40 secs
Day 5 = Day off
Day 6 = X + 40 secs
Day 7 = X + 60 secs
Day 8 = X + 60 secs
Day 9 = X + 60 secs
Day 10 = X + 80 secs
Day 11 = X + 100 secs
Day 12 = Day off
Day 13 = X + 100 secs
Day 14 = X + 120 secs
Day 15 = X + 140 secs
Day 16 = X + 140 secs
Day 17 = X + 160 secs
Day 18 = X + 160 secs
Day 19 = Day off
Day 20 = X + 180 secs
Day 21 = X + 200 secs
Day 22 = X + 200 secs
Day 23 = X + 220 secs
Day 24 = X + 220 secs
Day 25 = X + 240 secs
Day 26 = Day off
Day 27 = X + 260 secs
Day 28 = X + 280 secs
Day 29 = X + 280 secs
Day 30 = X + 300 secsI’m feeling quite nervous now I’ve looked ahead!!
-
It’s working again. I dropped down to easy. I can’t seem to do more then 3 minutes and my abs start to scream murder. So I go back a bit but I thinks my abs don’t mind.
Did my 65 bridges with my 10lb weight. -
That’s wicked, Anzia. You rock! 🙂
-
Despite my wicked bad head cold, I managed to do my 92 seconds for day 2 this evening. Woot! 😀
Now to get over this stupid cold so I can start doing more of the exercises here on StudioVeena!
-
Oh, one more thing. I discovered that the app talks to you with a kind of countdown!
I usually have my phone on mute as a matter of habit, and when I was about to go and do day 2 this evening, I mentioned to my partner that I wish it beeped or something when it reaches the end of the timer so that I didn’t have to watch it count down.
I happened to not have it on mute and was surprised when it announced, ‘One minute to go. Stay strong!’ LOL!! 😀
-
No way! I was so excited to read that. My phone is always on silent too. I put the sound back on, volume on loud and tried all my challenges (6 of them now!!! My poling had better improve after this!) but it didn’t talk to me 🙁 I feel unloved and rejected by an app lol.
In other news, I’ve reset the push ups challenge. I hadn’t really done push ups before and I’ve realised I was doing them wrongly (too shallow) to be effective. So today I started again (I was on 23) and managed… 4. Going right down to the floor and slowly back up is sooooo hard! My poor arms! -
My body is starting to dislike planks. Or maybe it’s me not liking them anymore. But I want to hang in there. I better see some abs when I am done. My bridges are still going great. It’s just the planking ugh
-
How odd that it didn’t talk to you, Anzia! That’s weird.
I can’t recall if you have a iPhone or Android.
-
Android 🙂
-
Ah, well, I have an iPhone. Not sure I can help.
Does Android have personalised profiles for various sounds? Maybe you were on a profile where apps are muted but not the ‘main’ parts of the phone?
-
I’ll check that. Thanks ferrous! Day off on most of them today. I just had to do tricep dips and push ups. Back to the killer 161 sec plank tomorrow, eeeek.
-
Thanks all 🙂 you have motivated me. 30 day challenge here I come 🙂 downloaded the App yesterday. Looks like I may not be able to pole much or at all for the next couple of weeksdue to injured wrist, but will see if I can plank while wearing a wrist brace. At least my abs should be stronger when I can get back to pole 🙂
