Here are 16 different plank based exercises - your challenge is to do them all in 16 minutes. You can hold each plank as long as you like - the ideal obviously is a full minute each - but its up to you how long that break is between each move. Just make sure you hit them all!

Most important thing is form - don't let that butt sag or hold it too high, keep your back ramrod straight and keep your eyes focussed on the ground a few centimetres in front of you.

Good luck!
