Decided to get this posted a little early–starting in September I’m going to try to do different 30 day challenges (some will be fitness, and some will be personal development). But to start it off–I decided to go with squats.  I’m going to start easy on myself (and anyone who wants to join in) with basic and sumo squats (since there were numerous others I could have added–and they may make it to their own 30 day squat challenge). The challenge starts off easy–5 squats–but by the end of the month it is 100 squats.  As I mentioned in the photo–unless you have ample time in the evening or the morning to try to do 45+ squats, break them up into smaller amounts (keep track–unless you want to be doing extra).

Also as I stated–you should consult with your doctor if you have issues with your knees, stop doing them if it hurts to squat, and talk with your doctor. While I am referred to as “Dr”–I’m not that type of Doctor (I have my PhD, not my MD).
