Do you guys do the plank during your workout?
Just curious how long you can hold.
I did 2 minutes 35 seconds tonight, 5 seconds longer than last time.
I've gotten to 3 min., but I don't do the long extened holds anymore because I get bored.
I'm around 2min..ish. Of course, even though I'm in good shape, 240lbs (down from 256) is still working against gravity. Core and legs. You'd do very well by core and squats.Do you guys do the plank during your workout?

My dad is doing the John jubilee thing, in 2 months he lost 68 lbs

Seriously ? That's a little hard to believe. To loose 68 pounds, you'd have to burn 238,000 more calories than you consume.
I lost 55 pounds in 6 months and that was brutal.
Sure it wan't 6.8 ? Or maybe I missed the purple
Went from size 50's pants to 42 or 44
He would have had to reduce his calorie consumption by 4,250 calories a day from his normal calories to keep the same weight to lose 68 lbs in two months.

Perhaps more accurate to say, he would have needed a 4,250 calorie deficit to lose 68#'s in roughly 60 days. This could be a combination of lower calorie intake (less food) or increased caloric burn (more exercise). if "normal" intake, allowing for overeating, is arguably 3500 to 4500 calories a day, I could see having an intake deficit of, say 1000 to 1500. The rest would have to come from exercise. Which seems pretty incredible to me! That would seem to require something like 6-8 hours of fairly intensive exercise each and every day for those 60 days. More if you allow for 1-2 rest days per week.
I've dropped 76 lbs in 170 days, give or take a week, but I went from eating huge amounts of food and numerous daily beers down to eating NOTHING but high protein low fat foods, and NO beer for the first 90 days. Add into that, at least an hour and a half, more often 2-3 hours per day of cardio or strength training since the beginning of the year.
My hat is off to anyone who gets much more drastic than that, I wouldn't want to do it again.
