Last night I put another 10 seconds onto my plank time, so now my longest plank is 5:10! Soon I'll be able to replicate that BOSU plank after all!
More importantly, on Tuesday I hopped back on the stair-climber to see how quickly I could do 144 floors, since I am looking to sign back up for the CN Tower stair climb this year. This time I did it in 18:23, which is awesome, if you don't take into account the fact that I stopped so often. The machine pauses the time when you take a rest, so I am sure it was over twenty minutes total, but I AM glad to say that my stoppage time was pretty short, I had more energy and actually ran up the steps quite a bit, and I felt terrific after.
Trainer has always maintained that it's harder to climb the stair climber than the actual stairs, and I agree with him. Plus, I believe there were maybe ten steps to a floor at the Tower compared to the fifteen on the machine, so I'm climbing a Tower and a half! He's now saying he thinks I can do it under fifteen minutes, but I'll be glad if I can get it closer to twenty than I did last year.
So the training begins!
