WELL.....
Today I was doing yoga, and the instructor had us go into a side plank....kind of in a sneaky way...without calling it that. I've never been able to do a side plank because my arms were never strong enough. Today...I not only did it but we switched from side to side in that position for several minutes.

I can't say if the yoga practice is giving me extra strength or the combination of kettle bells and yoga. Mayhaps it's because my client needs more help with transfers and my body has becomes stronger out of necessity. Either way, I'm so stoked to see improvement in my over all well being.  |
Good for you! Years ago I was at a gym where there was a "plank off" contest, who could hold the longest. It largely ended up with a lot of big buff male personal trainers competing against the yoga women. The yogies far outlasted all of the personal trainers. It was so fun to watch that all go down.
