Strength Progress

So I am almost finished my 30 day challenge work out! I have 3 more days to go. But I won't be stopping there! I will continue my workouts because I LOVE the feeling of getting stronger every day. When I started, Thinking of doing 80 squats in a day was tiring. I did them usually in sets of 10, maybe 20. As the number goes up, you want to push yourself to do more reps per set so that you finish faster! Doing 20 in a row was really hard at the beginning, my heart racing and I was feeling the burn. Once I got to 90, I did them in 3 sets of 30. Today I did 175 squats in 15 minutes. 3 sets of 50 and 1 set of 25. 

It was tough but it feels so good to look back and see how for you've come! I can tell that the strength in my legs and glutes is much better and you can feel the fat burning! [Squats burn the most fat of any exercise.] I also noticed its much easier now for me to go lower and lower every day! Crunches are awesome, I will do hundreds a day as I keep going! Plank is a hard one, but at the beginning I could barely stay up for 20 seconds. Now I'm totally fine past a minute, then it starts getting more challenging. I want to keep working at my plank so I can stay up for 3 minutes. I'm so glad I have done this challenge and I encourage you all to do it too! 

I have my workout scheduled into my calendar first thing in the morning (After I walked the dog) for half an hour. This way you get it done and you can get ready after and see results before you've eaten all day. I will post before and after pictures on the last day after my work out! :) TAKE THE CHALLENGE!
