This is the last week of our first 30-day challenge, so let’s get these in and get them done: our Monday challenge is 10, 20, 30, and 40 squats. Do the first set of 10 when as early as you can – it’s just 10 and a great way to wake up. Then take a moment to think through your day and decide on some kind of regular-ish schedule for doing the rest of the sets throughout the day. At the top of every hour, for example. Or the bottom of every odd-numbered hour (9:30, 11:30, 1:30, etc.). When you get to 40 squats, you’ve completed the challenge and can let us know you’re done.
OR, you can decide to keep on going, continuing on the schedule you set. The sets after the 40 squats (if you choose to continue) go 30, 20, 10, 20, 30, 40, 30, 20…
The bonus sets are purely for your own pleasure. Because what are squats but a great pleasure?! No extra point for doing them, but do let us know if you went into bonus rounds.
Squat on, champions of the world!

Did my first 10 in the kitchen this morning while preparing breakfast and packing lunch. Does holding my 32 oz glass protein shake count for a weight baring squat?
Twenty were done in the bathroom while curling my hair with a hot curling iron. Made sure I was in perfect form or I was really going to get badly burned.
Ten were done in the stall at the bathroom at work
Another ten done in the kitchen at home while washing dishes this afternoon
And the rest done at home while getting dressed for an evening out and doing laundrey. All done!

Done. Set 1 was done in the shower .. that was fun– I apologize to the environment. The rest were done while the dogs were circling around me trying to figure out if I was dancing with them or playing a new game. no bonus round but the burn is real. #Team Deadlift!
