    I want to start the challenge on September 1st, I just need at least one more person to check-in our progress!

    I like my squats low and my booty high :tongue: We can post our progress on this topic, or you can add me if you want. So let's do this!

    I started today (inadvertently -- I just did 50 squats in my workout anyway!) SO I am so ready for this squat challenge.

    I'M IN! Feel free to add me if you'd like and we can provide moral support for each other's booties and thighs. :wink:

    Could I shake it up even further and substitute the "Call Me Maybe" Mighty Squat Challenge (http://www.blogilates.com/blog/2012/04/16/call-me-maybe-mighty-squat-challenge/) for one squat day a week? Would anyone else do that with me? I've done that squat challenge a couple times already and it's killer.

    I finished my 50 squats for the day! I got more tired than expected but felt nice :)
    I love Cassey's Call Me Maybe challenge :D Maybe I can try that out if the 30 day challenge doesn't kill me :tongue: How many squats are in this video anyway?

    I did that one yesterday. It was a good burn, but I couldn't fully keep up with some pulses and holds. I'll finish my last few squats for Day 1 in a moment.

    I did 60 today! I'm somehow relieved that tomorrow is a rest day, my lazy self was starting to feel left out :tongue:

    Just knocked out my 60. I did 10; then I pushed through 35; then 15. Going away for the weekend, but I'll be keeping up with my squats.

    day 9 : 100 squats DONE! :bigsmile:

    I didn't want to stop, so when I got tired I continued with plie squats and then back to normal squats. I get easily bored with the same exercise so I may add up more squat types from this video I saw in another post:

    :( I've really been slipping on my challenges. I've got 20 squats down so far. Let's see if I can make up the rest.

    Whew! That was so killer. I broke them up into odd sets, but I got the last 85 knocked out. I'm sweaty and my legs and lower back are feeling it.
