So, my best friend talked me into a 30 day squat challenge that starts tomorrow. Do squats 3 days , one day of rest, and repeat. Each day the amount of squats you do increases. I switched it up some so that I'm starting at a comfortable number. Attached are my before challenge picture(s)

Did squats today and mine was more like 20' date=' 30 and 30. That last set did me in. I'm used to doing 4-10 reps per set...so my legs feel like Jello. [/quote']

Are you doing just your body weight?

I'm doing just body weight right now. I want to work up to weighted ones, or kettle bell squats

You absolutely can join in! I'm on day 5. I started at 10 squats one day one, and I am going up by 10 every day. You can alter it to whatever your skill level is.

I've just started a running program... I wonder if I could alternate squats and run days?

Yup, very good for inner thighs.

I'm doing c25k and will do the last day of week 6 tomorrow. It's a 9 week program. Ideally, I'll be up to 5k in three weeks, but I think that might be ambitious... I'm supposed to run for 22 minutes with no walking breaks tomorrow.
