    I am really interested in squats - certainly want to uplift, but I don't want to increase the size of my thighs, which have always been big (classic pear). Do squats just work the butt, or thighs too (it's always in the thigh that I feel the pain when doing squats). Thanks.

    70 squats done!
  • Is it ok to break it up. Like 2 sets of 25 for the first day? I'm starting today so I'm a little behind. Or is it best to do all 50 at once?

    Where do we find out what kind of squat we are doing each day, yesterday I saw a post that said today is the Curtsy Squat....I can't find that post now. Is there somewhere central to look for the new challenge? I am new to MFP and don't know all the in's and outs yet!
