Plank for PCOS

I follow  PCOSGurl  on twitter and this month she came up with a great idea to raise awareness for PCOS. The challenge is called Plank for PCOS. It starts off fairly easy with a 20 second plank for the first few days then progressively gets harder from there.

I am happy to say that I have successfully completed Day 1, Wooo!


Here is the basic guideline for the next 28 days:

The Plank Challenge must be completed in 4 weeks. At first, you simply start out in the plank position for 20 seconds. Easy, right? Slowly you will build up your stamina until you are planking for 4 minutes during the final weeks. Follow this plan:

Day 1 – 20 seconds
Day 2 – 20 seconds
Day 3 – 30 seconds
Day 4 – 30 seconds
Day 5 – 40 seconds
Day 6 – rest
Day 7 – 45 seconds
Day 8 – 45 seconds
Day 9 – 60 seconds
Day 10 – 60 seconds
Day 11 – 60 seconds
Day 12 – 90 seconds
Day 13 – rest
Day 14 – 90 seconds
Day 15 – 90 seconds
Day 16 – 120 seconds
Day 17 – 120 seconds
Day 18 – 150 seconds
Day 19 – rest
Day 20 – 150 seconds
Day 21 – 150 seconds
Day 22 – 180 seconds
Day 23 – 180 seconds
Day 24 – 210 seconds
Day 25 – rest
Day 26 – 210 seconds
Day 27 – 240 seconds
Day 28 – Until failure 

My plan during these seconds, that will pass more quickly than I think, is to pray. Pray for everyone who suffers from or is battling PCOS. For all those women who are struggling to lose weight, become pregnant, feel embarrassed by their skin, or their extra hair. Whatever their challenge I will be praying for that. 

Bless all of you.
