Here it is, the last day! And.... I only did 100. I guess it's true, things end, as Eliot said Not with a bang but a whimper. My foot was still bothering me and I had a headache as well. I was hoping that

Well, I was worried it might happen when I pushed myself from not having done any kind of non-aerobic exercise for 25 years to doing 100 squats everyday, and it may have finally happened. The day before

Jumping back up from the low weekend, I did 130 yesterday. Most people hate weekends. Hmm...or maybe that's just Garfield. But I enjoy getting back into the swing of things. I mean I do love my family

Seems I fell behind again! The weekend is always busy, so after doing my regular post I just didn't have time to make this one. Let's catch up now. Saturday I only had time for 100, and Sunday I did the

Getting busy lately. I missed another day so this will be another twofer. The day before yesterday I was tired from my recent work and so I only managed 100—in 2 sets of 30 then 2 more sets of 20. Yesterday

I didn't have time to post my update yesterday, so consider this a twofer! The day before yesterday I did 120 and yesterday I did 130. Both days I was feeling really good and did a first set of 60. The

Yesterday was back to business. That is, the start of the new week. Most people hate Mondays, but I've never minded them. I miss playing with my kids, but I also have more time to focus on my work. With

Yesterday was another busy family day. We were out until late, so I had to do all my squats all at once. I decided to make it a game with my kids before their bed in order to get them tired for sleep.

In the morning I was out playing with both kids, so I didn't get any squats in. In the afternoon my oldest wanted to play chess. He's really taking to the game. I wrote a post about it on my other account

Yesterday I took it down a notch. My Fridays are the busiest day of the week for me. I'm teaching all day so I'm out of the house from early in the morning to late at night. Then after the kids go to bed

Yesterday I was running around all day. I did get home a few times, but every time I found myself in the zone, writing and not noticing the time as it flew by. Some people call that flow state. Flow state

Yesterday I did the same routine as the previous day, three sets of 50/40/30 giving me 120 for the day. I thought about a fourth set of 20, but my foot was hurting so I decided to skip it. I have a very

Yesterday things were going smooth. I knocked out all my sets in the morning: 50, 40, then 30, bringing me to 120 for the day. I intended to do more in the evening, but I had some late classes and then

Daily update on my progress in the Squats Challenge.

Yesterday was a family day again. I did 40 in the morning with my kids just like yesterday. We went out to the park most of the day. This park has some hiving trails, so we ended up walking most of the

Yesterday I was busy all day. Saturdays are busy work days, but I also try to spend all my free time with my family—weekends are the only extended time I have with my kids, after all, so I don't want to

Yesterday was a bit of a down day. My knee really hurt in the morning, a sign perhaps that I've been pushing things a bit too far. I didn't want to break any momentum though, so I was going to do my squats.

I had the intention of pushing myself as much as possible yesterday, getting as close to 100 as I could in one set. ...it didn't happen. I mean, it did, but for that first set I only made it to 35 again,

Yesterday I had a bit of a relapse in my soreness. That may be because I had pushed myself to do 150 the previous day. But it wasn't bad enough to prevent me from doing another 150! This time I did more

Yesterday I was still sore, but it was much much better than it had been. Still sore, but it was of a more manageable level, like the gentle soreness of playing with the kids all day outside or , not the
