    Alright, I haven't done any squats in over 1.5 years, so I have done 120 of them so far today. I'm hoping to get the other 100 done later tonight (I'm going to hopefully go for a jog or brisk walk), but I was doing them in between my aerobic dance workout today.

    I did 11 sets of 10 and 1 set of 20 squats. I am trying to focus on my form for them. I need to keep my back straighter for the final 100.. I was getting a little lazy.. I can already feel it in my upper thighs though. OUCH!

    Good luck everyone!

    I finished the last 100. The last 20 were excruitiating! Pretty sure I was both sweating and crying at the same time. Hahaha. We shall measure by the soreness I feel tomorrow if it was worth it!

    Bring on the next challenge

    If you feel pain and not just mascle fatigue your form may be to blame or you did too many in a row and pushed past your limit. Next time break them up throughout the day ;)
