By the 2 minute mark, it is pretty unbearable. 9 hours is just on another level. A whole work day in that position.

Wow, you're not kidding. I figured how hard could 2 minutes possibly be. Turns out, pretty hard if you've never done it before.

Yeah, I was surprised too when I started adding planks to my routine to improve core stability when climbing.

Progress also is painfully slow (for me at least), currently wondering how I can improve it.

I've personally embraced the slow progress and just add a few seconds to my "plank timer" every week. Best of luck!
