How to Do it:
The Challenge:
Warm up with a few lunges and about 5 squats just to get your legs moving. You always want to do a bit of warm up before getting into the grit of the challenge to get your joints loose and 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!
If you want to challenge yourself further, do another set or two, but if you don't think your legs can take it, you can quit after 2 sets.
Day 3 Challenge met!
