So if you want to join us in the challenge, please leave a comment and let us know.  We would love to have you as a part of 6 Kidman!

If you would like directions on how to do a proper plank you can check out this video.  Sarah Anne (my housemate and trainer) makes me do them on my elbows because apparently I cheat when I do them straight armed.  Locking your elbows straight is NOT a proper plank pose.
