30 Day Squat Challenge - Start Date May 1

mlang111 · April 2013

Sounds great, I am up for it! Sounds like sooooo many squats a day to do, I wonder how many can actually do it. I have a sit down job and have not been very active, so I will try my best!

Im already regretting this, but sure. I'm up for it

Not really sure how to form a group but I will start a 'topic' each day if that is ok. That way we can all check in at different times of the day.

I'm in. How much weight on the bar?

Not sure what you mean? I am not going to use weights as it will be tough enough for me to do them as it is.

You can do them how you want. I split them into sets. I did 5 sets of however many made it come out to the proper amount for the day, with maybe a 30 second break between sets. I found making set 2 and 4 a different kind of squat (sumo) I was able to do them all.

I'm starting - but today.

And I'm coming up with a few butt/thigh alternatives if my knees start to cry. Someone said Plies are good too.

If your knees are hurting, you may be over extending.
Try doing them with your legs spread far apart as well - works the inner thigh and glutes (sp) and is not as much strain on your quads for some reason. I think it's called sumo squats.
Doing those with a jump inbetween is a good extra calorie burn.

Hope this works. The first one is for building arms/legs/and core muscles, the second is the crunch challenge.
