Della Stanley, mum of four (12y, 9y, 5y, 18m)

Della improved her prone by 2’22” starting at 3’38” and holding for a long 6’ after 8 weeks - just goes to show that after rebuilding from the inside out AND four children you can have super strong core strength! 

Della completed this prone hold in separate testing and not in the usual order after our oval run, so Della has stepped aside in recording the 'best' prone hold.

Della wins a lovely Champagne Afternoon Tea for two at the Langham Hotel
