    Barbie, there shouldn’t be an end to keep strong. In aiming for at least the 5 week level and staying there. More if I feel like it. This thread is to keep me going and logging how many I do. Good motivation!😊

    :) I absolutely agree. So many people talk about how they met a goal and then slacked off and gained weight or lost strength or went back to their old ways and had difficulty recovering.

    I will be joining you on Monday the 29th. It has been a few years since I have done a squat challenge. Even though I am up and down all day with the kids; I have noticed that my leg strength isn't what it was five years ago. So...I will give this a shot. Does it matter what kind of squat? KJ

    :) I do sumo squats and use a counter for balance. The older I get, the smarter I get about staying safe. Because our squats may be different, our numbers may mean different things. That's why I say that my challenge is with myself and not with anyone else.

    I did 20 today on the foam mat at therapy. Am going to try for 20 every other day. I agree Barbie-we challenge ourselves. Squats are different for each person based upon their own physical issues.

    I may very well do some squats the next 4 days. Seems too long for me to not do any before I get to the next week on the plan.

    RVRita going to do squats now.

    1/29/24 10 deep squats holding counter
