22-Day Squat challenge

Squats are one of the overall BEST exercises for your lower body.  They mainly target your Glutes and Quadriceps, but also your Hamstrings, Calves, Abs, and Lower back.  When done using correct posture and form, they are super beneficial. One of the best things is they can be done anywhere without any equipment!

We are going on a cruise in 22 days yay!  So I have decided to start a 22 Day Squat Challenge in order get my booty bikini ready!  So who is with me?  Beach/Pool/Boating season is upon us, so let’s do this!IMG_8551squat

How to Perform a Squat Correctly: Stand with your feet hip distance apart, back straight, abs tight, lower your body down without leaning forward, pretend like you are seating back into a chair, keep your weight over your heels, then come up, repeat. Arms can be placed anywhere.squat2

To add a little B2C twist, I want you to perform the last 10 squats of each day as a JUMP SQUAT.  So squat and then jump up as high as you can before landing and going back down into another squat.  This will add a little Plyometric training in which will help build our Glutes even more!squat1
