Weekly Challenge

I know that it is the middle of the week and a strange time to begin a weekly challenge, but there is no such thing as a bad time for exercise.

I will be doing weekly challenges, starting today!

This week's challenge: 1 leg squats

Stand with your legs straight beneath your body. Put one leg in the air and your arms straight out in front of you for balance. Go down on the standing leg as far as you can. Your ultimate goal is to have the same posture as the lady in the picture. Tighten your glutes (bum) and your thighs, in fact tighten all your muscles in your body and be in control of your muscles. Push yourself up until you are in the standing position. Do not lower your leg that is in the air.

Do 5 reps per leg. The challenge is to do this as much as you can daily. Keep a journal and make note of the amount of times that you did the 1 leg squats per day. Make an effort to do this every time you go to the bathroom.

Only go as low as is comfortable. Do not hurt yourself. Be careful not to sway to the side when pushing up as this means that you have not tighten your glutes and thighs.

I will be updating you guys daily as to the amounts of 1leg squats (reps) that I got into my daily routine.

You WILL see results in 1 week! Commit and do as much as you can daily.
