A 58-year-old grandmother in Canada, DonnaJean Wilde, has broken the women's world record for the longest time in an abdominal plank position, holding it for 4 hours, 30 minutes, and 11 seconds.
There's a new world record for the longest plank ever held by a woman – and it was broken by a grandmother in Canada . Guinness World Record s announced late last month that 58-year-old DonnaJean Wilde, a mother of five and grandmother of 12 in Canada , broke the women's world record for the longest time in an abdominal plank position after holding it for 4 hours, 30 minutes and 11 seconds – 10 minutes longer than the previous record established in 2019.
Wilde spent every day planking for up to three hours, during which time she would watch movies and even study for her master's degree. In preparation for the attempt, she did that three-hour exercise twice a day. 'I realized that I could read and do things when I was planking and fell in love with it,' she said.Wilde has been planking for more than a decade, getting into the activity after she broke her wrist 12 years ago and couldn't run or lift weights while she was in a cast.
