    I’m almost finished it, but I’m finding I need to pause a whole lot more and I can’t hold it as long as I could. It’s hurting my shoulders as soon as I get into it. I’m in line and doing it correctly but It’s just hurting. blah.

    I heard someone was ecstatic because they could pole in clothes now, but that’s all I’ve heard

    Just did 166 (with breaks) I can hold it longer than my first go but then it gets too much. I started on 46 seconds, I could do the 115 seconds but now I can only hold 60 seconds or so. Improvement but frustrating. I think more rest days are something they should think about. The bridge and sit-up challenges break more frequently and the bridge challenge alternates reps going up and down (one day 53 the next 48 eg)

    I’ve decided to stop the timer when I need to and do the time in sections if that’s what needs to happen. I’m still doing the entire time, but there’s no way I can hold it in one go

    Guess it depend on how fit you are. I’m quite unfit and find three challenges leaves me aching. So any more for me is probably a bad idea!

    @Anzia, that’s the one everyone is using, pretty sure! 🙂 on the iphone the difficulty level is on the right top corner in the challenge itself 🙂

    Woohoo just did day 9 at 106 seconds! 😀 I finally made it all the way through. I just had to swap my hand placement! I’m quite nervous about tomorrow’s 126 seconds though.

    And a big thanks to puppy for sitting on my legs while doing it… Grrrr

    I’m in the same boat as you Kate! I have one more day to get my 106 seconds. I’ve had to stop twice the last two times. But it’s interesting to note that today I stopped further into it than the first time. If I can’t get it tomorrow then I’ll drop down to easy! I’m also doing the sit-up and the bridge challenge 🙂

    I felt the same way, I was taught to have it right next to the crotch, but it was unbearable pain and it felt like I was crunching bones and stuff. I put the pole slightly further down on my legs so it’s not sitting in the top crease of my legs. I have big legs, and it makes for an easier sit I think. But it does hurt.

    I did 86 seconds this morning an completed it thank goodness! I tried singing to take my mind off of it and it worked until I got closer to the end. My arms seem to be stressing out quicker than my abs unfortunately!

    I don’t think you have a weird shape!

    I won’t be posting my before photos, I got quite a large belly and don’t think anyone would really want to be looking at that. But I will be taking photos for myself so I can see the difference 🙂
