Tuesday = 200 squats! You know you love them or at least love to hate them, either way love is involved!
Since I started these mini challenges (a little over a month ago?) I have noticed a serious change in my glutes! My stability in certain yoga poses and core strength has increased noticeably!
I just want to remind everyone it really is important to keep good form, without it you risk injury but ALSO miss out on the maximum benefit of the exercise!

Level 1 = against a wall (can use an exercise ball or towel)
Level 2 = air squat
Level 3 = with weights
Sets of 20-30 and you can break them up!
Post back when you are done by midnight with what you accomplished
So who's down??????

Any chance of more of an explaination about level 1 wall - is it holding your hands out against the wall, or your back??
I'm in. Its your fault if I can't do my pilates class tonight! How do you log that as exercise on here, or is it strength (sorry for dim question!)?0 -

Wall squats are against the wall and you slide your back down it for stability.
Babies are weights! See how many you can do holding a baby
If you do 25 squats after every trip to the bathroom today you could fit them in, they really don't take long and are completely portable!
To log:
Many sets broken up over the day as strength training
But if in just 2-4 sets I think calisthenics0 -
