Welcome to day 8!

Today is a rest day, and you earned it!

Have you noticed any changes since we began this challenge? If yes, what?

    :laugh: I'm glad I checked this before I went out to walk the dogs....otherwise I would have done a lot of squats on my rest day.. Squats are not a new exercise for me, so I haven't noticed any special results except the joy that comes from adding a new discipline.

    I have lost an inch around my thighs:-) and a bit sore. Any suggestions for stretching exercises for a sore calf muscle:-)

    Didn't realize it was a rest day so did 80 squats, but I didn't do any yesterday so I'll count that as my rest day. Haven't really felt the burn yet, maybe I need to add more weight, I'm doing them with 2 x 2.5lb weights at the moment so may have to buy some heavier ones.

    Yay for rest day! After getting past the initial soreness I've noticed my thighs and glutes are getting firmer. And I could tell a difference this evening when I ran in a 5k :)
