DAY 1 (easy) done!2

Here we go! I love the accountability of these challenges, @superfood75 - makes for consistency!
Squats, lunges, push-ups (elevated), arm circles, side bends, & tricep lifts. Since I already do push-ups, I'm going to switch them up to scapula push-ups to work the shoulders. I worked up to 50 reps in September, and it's still challenging. If the intensity levels off, I'll up them as I go. Planks scare me to death. I have very little upper body strength. I've picked a slow transition that will move me from 10 to 50 seconds by the end of the month. I'll speed it up or slow it down depending upon how it goes. At 62, the goal is strength building and injury prevention.- 10/1-4 - 50r/10s, 50r/10s, 50r/15s, Rest
