For all our other throwing and catching records, the ambidextrous Loose Cannon Jonathan “Hollywood” Hannon is the thrower. I’m the juggler and I catch. The problem was I couldn’t maintain a full minute plank consistently enough to practice and make the official attempts for the record.

The record was for the most alternating catches in one minute while holding a plank. I learned my lesson. Not only because I had to throw instead of catch, but after we did it we realized it was only a “one person” record which means he’s the only one who gets credit for it. Thus, Jonathan has his first “solo” Guinness World Records title.

We swapped roles and he caught 66 of the throws in alternating hands to break the previous record of 38 alternating catches while planking in one minute.

I have since started a new workout regimen and over the past <2 months have completed over 10,000 each of pushups and situps so my core strength doesn’t embarrass me again like that.
