9 week plank, squat, crunches challenge

[Trying hard 2014]

Day 4

Plank - 41 secs (a dis-provement of 3 seconds!)
Crunches - 20 regular; 20 hill reach; 20 vertical
Squats - 60 - left it out of my weights segment as my hip is giving me a bit of bother so just did regular squats, thinking I may well start the squat challenge as having the weights on my shoulders isn't working....

Good job mrs not every plank is going to get longer! X

Lol who's been taking pictures of me

Head was agony last night and still feels muggy today - I've decided I'm not going to do the regular crunches for now, I'll just do the bicycle and let that pull/tone my stomach.
