Danail Parvanov performed 147 alternate heel touches in one minute in Sofia, Bulgaria. The alternate heel touch is a core exercise done lying on the back, crunching side to side to tap each heel in turn, so 147 in sixty seconds is a touch roughly every four tenths of a second, sustained without pause. His 62-second single-take video is exactly what an honest one-minute attempt looks like, and the cadence holds steady from first rep to last.

Danail Parvanov logged 288 alternate heel touches in three minutes in Sofia, Bulgaria, pacing the lying core exercise across a full 180 seconds rather than a single sprint. That is a heel tap every 1.6 seconds for three unbroken minutes of core engagement, a different challenge from his one-minute mark: less about speed, more about refusing to stop. The 181-second continuous take was verified unbroken with a steady cadence from start to finish.
