PLANK WORK
The plank is a workout staple,
as it’s effective at toning
your whole rig. Hold a plank
for a minute each morning
and a minute at night, daily.
Want to make it harder? Add
extra time, or do 60 seconds
of up and down planks. Begin
in a full plank, then lower
your right elbow to the mat
and then the left, coming into
an elbow plank. Then do the
reverse to return to fullplank.

body with new skills and
routines. Keep it guessing.’ - Follow Tim’s nutrition
guidelines – 70 per cent

“I can’t have chocolate cake

to harm as much,’ he says.
