    My roomie and I started this on the 1st! It starts getting easier around day 7, the first couple days were definitely a little rough going.

    Day one complete. I had to stop at 35, and do another set of 15 though. I already had a decent workout this morning and I started getting a little wobbly. I'll try and push straight through for day 2!
  • I started today as well!
    Breezed right through them to be honest, except for the last 10.
    Hope it'll get a lil harder tomorrow~

    I did them pretty easily too. I agree the last 10 were the hardest so deff more is gonna be a work out. I have a previous knee injury that I am hoping to strengthen with this challenge as well. Good job on day 1 ladies! :D

    I am sorry but I had to bow out on the 55 today. I *know* I did at least 55 today at the gym during my workout, but I didn't actually count them, and they weren't in a row. Hubby took me out for the evening to celebrate our 10th anniversary and after walking nearly 7 miles today my knees, ankles, hips and feet all ache. I'll either do day 2 tomorrow, or double up the day 3 count.

    You can do them with or without weights. I believe it was setup to do them without so everyone can do them, but if u are at a more advanced level adding weights will defiantly make it more "Challenging" ! :D
  • Challenge accepted! Just finished Day 1 :)

    I am doing it without weights... Day 1 - 3, i thought I was quite fit as I go to the gym 3/4 times a week and I couldnt get up out of my chair properly.

    Day 14 and I am noticing the difference already plus i dont ache so much anymore

    Wow, by coincidence my colleague and I are doing this challenge. We have just finished day 2. She is really struggling with it but I'm doing ok so far. Funny thing is that she must weigh at least 30kg less than me but has not exercised in a long time! I'm shocked that I'm actually coping better than her at a physical challenge
