I do them with an ab belt, and two minutes is still pretty amateurish tbh. Most people on the street couldn't do it, but if you're a lifter you should be able to handle it no problem. I do around three and a half minutes usually.
Why are you trying to lose fat? If you're that skinny and still at 12% bf then you haven't got much muscle to show. Bulk.Just tried 2 mins. I'm a beginner and it was hard but I wasn't anywhere near collapsing'If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings---nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
If all men count with you, but none too much:
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!'

3 minutes, for me with planks its not just core strength its mind over matter you will feel the burn ,but don't give out.
