Thanks.

No worries. I’m just doing 100 body squats a day for 30 days. No weight. I do it all in one set but there’s nothing wrong with splitting it up into sets as needed.

It’s the 3000 squats in 30 days challenge, one of the guys from gcn has a video on it. If you search squats/gcn it should come up.

On days that I ride I do the squats at night before bed, on days I don’t ride I do them first thing in the morning. I plan on making this part of my routine, but going months on month off, as well as adding 5 pounds each on month or maybe 10 pounds if I am feeling crazy.


Day 4 is the worst but after that, It doesn’t seem to hard or bad. Having my wife and daughter watch me and make fun of me is the hardest part.
