Keeping up with my YouTube video subscription to exerciseTV I saw a post from them challenging me this week to work on lower body and legs. So, thought I would share and see who would like to join me. The challenge involves 60 lunges and 60 squats everyday this week. Here's the vid:

My plan is to start today and do it everyday until next Monday. Adding it up means a total of 420 lunges and 420 squats which seem like pretty sweet numbers to me. So, who wants to play?

    I just finished mine, yes!! Wasn't so bad for me, since my current exercise of choice is kettlebell and before that, step aerobics. I also split it into three separate sessions during the day, so maybe that's cheating a little! My boyfriend said I needed to do 60 in a row of each before he would be impressed. :P

    Let's see your bf do it!!! :) No way, that's not cheating if you break it up throughout the day. I actually think it may be more effective. Anyway, gotta go do mine - day two bring it!

    Ugh! I'm sure he could. Despite the smoking, drinking, and, like, 0% body fat, he's in really, really good shape. Half done for today!

    I've seen a few Ipod/Iphone/Ipads apps that are like this....crunches, pushups, squats etc. They care kind of like the C25K program and chart building up to exercises reps. For those of you interested in something that keeps track. One is http://www.twohundredsquats.com/iphoneapp.html

    I may try some after I'm done with 30DS.
