Action Step:
Make a Plan.
Just like in week 1, look at your schedule over the next week. Find time where you can dedicate a few minutes each day to the Plank Mini Challenge. Mark it on your calendar and/or put a reminder on your phone to take the time.
Also print out the Plank Mini Challenge paper tracker for Week 2 to keep up with the plan and your progress each day. You will be referencing your Final Week 1 Standard Plank Baseline Time, so make sure to write that in to get you started. And as another reminder, you will need to log any points earned online at hdhealthchallenge.com. Only points logged online will be counted and you will only be able to log points for the current and prior week.
Action Step:
Add 5 and Create a New Baseline Time.
Today you will start to create a new Baseline Time by adding 5 seconds to your Final Week 1 Standard Plank Baseline Time. You will repeat this new Baseline time 2 times.
