You can do this with or without weights. The key thing to squats is make sure your knees do not go over your toes.

    I was unable to complete the challenge last week due to some medical issues that kept me from being able to do any exercise for a few days, but I'm back on track and going to give it another go this week. Squats I can handle.... 80 oz. of water not so much. I will be really pleased with myself if i get in 64 a day. Good luck this week everyone! :drinker:
