    May be a silly question, but the required squats for a particular day, do they have to be done at one time or just get them in throughout the day?

    @texasfarmer Either way. Don't think it matters as long as you do them.

    I'm in!! Starting late and I'll have to tweak the number of daily squats. Good luck everyone!

    wai so many squats- 300 seems like an excessive amount?!? you're looking at a repetitive use injury with that kind of rep range.

    I'm 10 days late but I'll definitely start today!

    It is a lot. Just kind of followed the pattern a bit.Think I'll hit 250 (end) and think about what to do.

    Even doing 300 I'd break it up like 12 sets of 25 reps. So it isn't that bad... Really don't want to think of that amount atm
    Did my 230 today

    its way More effective to squat with weights...and not on consecutive days :-)

    this challenge sounds very time consuming!

    Right?!!

    If you can squat three days in a row, or if you can do 200 squats per day, then you're not doing them right
