Welcome to the 'Show Me The Booty -- August Squat Challenge'! I am so glad you decided to join me in this challenge. I created this group because I wanted to make a commitment to get up and move in the month of August!

Tell me a little bit about yourself and why a better booty is what you want!

I'm Brandy, Almost 30yr old (Birthday is August 28th)
I am super excited about the challenge and I want a new booty because I'm about to be 30!

    I'm 33 and I need to squat more! Not just for a better bum (British, cannot say 'booty' without sounding like a pirate) but also to improve my form and work on my abs, which I hear are better formed from squats that crunches. That's sold me on it!

    I'll be 23 in 10 days, and recently had a little boy who refuses to let me put him down. I think squats are the only practical form of exercise for us right now! My backside was pretty great while I was pregnant, but 4 months of being a SAHM has started to cause some issues :p

    Thanks for starting this challenge Brandy! I finished the basic squat challenge a few months ago. It was great! I had planned to do 100 squats a day to maintain after that... but no... So a new challenge is exactly what I need!

    Hi my name is Shell and I'm 34 Years old.

    I have always been active since adolescent age but I'm built different. I have a small upper body and thick legs and rear end.

    I'm intrigue into completing this challenge because I want to sculpt my legs and firm my booty in the process.

    Hi everyone! I'm Brie, 23 years old. I've always loved cardio but really want to work on strengthening and toning, especially in my legs and booty (my main problem areas). Hoping this challenge keeps me on track and helps me get better form by the end of August!

    Thanks for creating this challenge :)

    Hello,

    I am 25 and I was looking for an interesting challenge and I need to do some more squats anyways. Who knows maybe my 15 month old will find it funny and laugh at me too.

    Hi, my name is Bonnie. My goal for August is to see some real results. I'm adding a few things into my routing and I think this will be a great fit. This challenge looks doable and fun. I'm looking forward to getting started . I hope the squats will help my running and give my a marvelous booty. :-)

    HI I'm happy to join the challenge. I have been doing Zumba for a few years, but fell off the exercise wagon just before the summer. Need to get back into exercise and squats are a very good way to start. Not worried so much about the look of my booty, but more want it toned and lifted. Don't wan to get to the point where it is sagging. I'm almost 53 and gravity can do awful things to a body.

    My name is Morgan, I'm 29 and need to get myself MOVING! There are days- like today and tomorrow that I am VERY busy where I can't make the gym. But the beautiful thing about squats? On my lunch break I can go to a private area and pound out these squats! So here's to doing them everyday no excuses!

    Not quite the oldest. :wink:

    I have done a squat challenge before and I REALLY enjoyed it--especially since the amount gradually increased.

    I haven't seen the Ab Crunch Challenge. I tried a Sit-Up challenge, but I fell off the wagon.

    And CONGRATS on your anniversary.

    Hi this is David, I live in Bremen, Germany! Surely I'm not the only guy here, right? Well anyway, I also want to maintain my booty after having lost some weight. I also dance samba and need something to shake. Looking forward to this! I can do squats during my lunch break, fantastic.

    Uh-oh. Where are the pictures???? I went to print them so I could carry them around with me until I memorized them, and now I can't find it.

    Can someone help me please?

    Well I was going to join but I cannot see groups on my phone app and that is really all I use. I just happened to have a few minutes to log onto the laptop tonight. I am dissapointed.:cry:

    I am super excited that everyone has joined! Please make sure to reference my blog for each type of squat that you are supposed to do everyday. Each day has the total number of squats and how to do them.

    For example:

    Day 1 -- 6 reps of each (5 different types of squats) = 30 TOTAL SQUATS

    Let me know if you have any questions!

    Excited and nervous. I have always carried my weight in my behind. I like my big butt. But I don't want it to be lumpy. Excited to be here

    Hi all, I'm Emma from New Zealand...and I'm heading full speed towards 40 (2.5 months and counting).

    I decided August was going to be my squat challenge month before discovering this group - so it will be nice to do it alongside others and be able to track our successes together.

    Just want to tone and tighten up in conjunction with the good eating and regular workouts I'm doing. It's all part of my journey to become the hottest, fittest, healthiest 40yr old I can possibly be.

    I guess as I'm on the other side of the world from most of you I'll be a day ahead...which means I'll finish first!! See you there! :wink:

    Hi ladies! I'm Kim. Love the 30 day squat challenges. I did one 2 months ago and really saw a difference in 30 days. I have kept up with them but loved Brandy's versatility in the different types of squats. So hoping the next 30 days will get me even closer to the ideal booty :-) I'm 44 and I sit at a desk most of the day. The booty isn't what or where it used to be. Let's go ladies!

    And just for the record... the photo/avatar for the group page is VERY motivating to complete this challenge!
