Fitness Challenge Day 24

The Exercise:  Squats

So, once again it is leg day, are we whipping those legs into stronger biking shape yet?  How about some more squats to help us along?

We've done squats before back on Day 3, so these should be old hat by now.  Try adding some weight to your squats with dumbbells or kettlebells for a harder workout.



The Challenge:

Warm up with a few lunges and about 5 squats just to get your legs moving. 

Rest about 30 seconds.

Do as many squats as you can while keeping proper form

Rest 1 minute, shake out your legs, walk around and loosen up.

Do a second set of as many squats as you can!

Rest 1 minute.

Do a third set of max squats and add a fourth if you are really feeling the urge to push yourself.
