    No need to squat 6 consecutive days a week (muscle needs time to repair), but if this floats your boat and keeps you going, more power to you.

    Is this squats only? Or squatting with a barbell?

    Oh my god, this sounds evil! I'm so in.

    Every Tuesday 3-4 sets of HEAVY back squats 3-5 reps. Every Friday 3-4 sets of front squats for 8-12 reps. I am seeing great results. So no thanks to all those body weight squats. Sounds like a great way to keep active but besides that I don't understand the need for all of this. Lift heavy and see results!

    For those suggesting less squats and adding weights, if you do not have access to weights, what would you suggest?

    Single leg lunges or pistol squats.

    Thank you for your reply. I had to google pistol squat, never heard of it. After researching it, I will not be trying it either - LOL.
  • did my first day squats and woke up feeling GREAT! how was everyone who started the challenge along with me yesterday?
  • it tones your legs and butt area
  • I am going to try this. I just did my first 30.

    After yesterday, ow! But it's that good 'oh, I did something!' pain. Looking forward to doing more today!

    Any harm in splitting them up throughout the day?

    lol my normal squat routine consists of 8 sets of 10 reps with 90 kilos....i cant manage this. without weights, this would be a walk in the park...overall, a great routine!! all the best to those trying to accomplish their goals!! :D
