    I know, this one seemed to be all the rage so I’m disappointed it hasn’t gone well! But hey, we all tried, and that’s an achievement in itself. Thanks to all of you for giving it a go with me 🙂
    I agree with the rest of you, not enough breaks, it’s too tough. Veena I am super excited for your challenge, we’re learning aerial inverts in class and I can’t quite manage it yet so I’m keen to work on my core!

    Am I the only one still hanging in there? Today will be day 15. I don’t think I can ever do the 5 minutes of day 30. I probably will drop down to easy one of these days. But I keep on going. Just to the best of my ability. I am also doing the bridge challenge. That gets upped by 5 each day. But that is very doable.

    I’m with you, sassylina! If it gets too hard I will add in extra ‘repeat’ days to acclimatise more slowly. Just starting tonight’s challenges. I hate the wall sit!!

    I’m still in so far, tomorrow will be day 13 since it wouldn’t let me progress until I completed the one I failed at, which I did two days later.

    I’m still going to continue but I will increase the time a bit slower and maybe only do it every second day for the remaining time if I need to. I suppose though technically that’s still not completing it :/

    I’m interested in trying the plank challenge! When I was poling regularly about 2.5 years ago, I loved doing planks! I can’t recall exactly how long I could hold one for, but I’m pretty sure it was longer than a minute.

    Since then, the first plank I tried was yesterday in Veena’s hard core warmup. I’m feeling it today. LOL!! 😀

    Oh, and as for the app, I can’t get it to work, either.

    I have an iPhone 5S. Is that what the others who can’t get it to work are also using? Maybe they haven’t updated the app to the latest iOS.

    If that’s the case, I might try it on my son’s iPhone (my old one). Hopefully it’ll work on that.

    Well done grayeyes! PoleTigress, that definitely counts and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. ‘There are many routes to a successful outcome’ and all that jazz…
    Ferrous, I’m on Android (Samsung Galaxy S3).

    I looked on the app developer’s Facebook page and on the first post I see by someone else to their page, they have the same issue. Seems it was the latest update (to the app, I assume) that killed it, and that they’ve sent a fix through.

    This is regarding the iPhone version, so I assume the same happened with other versions.

    A screen shot taken just now.
