Today's challenge is: Walking Lunges

Let's see if we can do 150 of them.

I'm doing lower numbers now because I want us to focus on proper form to get full benefit from these challenges. Basically I want to focus on quality not quantity.

You have until midnight to get them done.
You can do them all at once or break them into smaller groups.
If you can't do them all then do what you can. The important thing is that you try to do them.
Make sure you stretch and have fun doing them.
Report back when you are done and let us know how you did.
You can log these challenges as "Calisthenics" I hear.

Mini mini challenge: Let's see how many we can do with our trailing knee touching the ground during our dip.

    Done. My boss got quite the giggle at work when I was doing the lunges to get from place to place. It's a good thing, I work in an environment that is pro-fitness.

    You are my idol. Your legs must feel like jello. After about 75, I needed a break.

    Done!! Took me 3 different sets but the more I did the easier it was. 30, 50 and 70 and I didn't even fall over. lol

    That was totally fun!! So what are we doing tomorrow? :)
