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 that extra time, I knocked out 50 squats in the morning in one set. My legs were burning by the time I got to 40, but I forced myself to finish it. I realize that if I want this month squat adventure to have any lasting effect, I'm going to have to push myself more to force actual muscle growth.
I then launched myself into work, which involved writing a bit, working on my website (not Hive; personal one), and teaching. Towards the end of the day I did a set of 30, then I did a second set of 30 with my kids before they went to sleep.
That means 110 for the day.
That brings me to 1,995 for the month!
I'm doing this 100 Squats per day Challenge with @livinguktaiwan, @pardinus, @dewabrata, and @xrayman to raise funds for Cancer Research. Read my challenge announcement here.
If anyone else wants to join, please do, and please mention it here! And if you want to donate, please donate here or send HIVE/HBD directly to @livinguktaiwan and she will convert it to fiat and donate it herself.
Almost all of us will have to deal with cancer in our lifetimes, either we will get it or someone we love will get it. 1 in 8 women will eventually get breast cancer. An astonishing 1 in 3 men will eventually get prostate cancer. There are many other cancers with similar scary high rates. If you are able, please consider donating or spreading the word of this fundraiser.
