Planksgiving 2026
Build to a 3-minute plank by Thanksgiving
Every November, we spend the month getting stronger from the center out. Planksgiving starts November 1 with a 30-second plank and adds a few seconds each day. By Thanksgiving Day, you’ll be holding a 3-minute plank.
You can do it in class or at home. Our teachers build the day’s plank into classes all month, so you’ll get coaching and company when you’re in the studio. On the days you’re not, grab the calendar, set a timer, and hold it wherever you are. Share your progress and tag us @the.cyclingyogi so we can cheer you on.
Planksgiving is free and open to everyone, and every level is welcome. Drop to your knees when you need to, rest and start again, or pick up wherever you are if you miss a day. What matters is showing up, a little stronger each time.
How it works
- November 1: hold a 30-second plank
- Add a few seconds each day, following the calendar
- Plank in class with your teacher, or at home on your own
- Thanksgiving Day: finish with 3 minutes
