The oldest person to perform an abdominal plank (female) is Marie Carpenter (USA, b. 3 March 1936), who is 90 years and 4 days old, as verified in Colorado, USA, on 7 March 2026.
Marie has an active lifestyle and goes to the gym 3–5 times per week. Every time she goes to the gym, she planks, and one of her granddaughters recently discovered that she couldn't plank anywhere near as long as Marie.
When the family learned about her potential to break the world record, they decided it would be fun to have a 'planl-off' against all the grandchildren, at her 90th birthday celebrations. They all competed against her, but were defeated!
The family are "so proud of the strongest 90 year old" as a grandma!
