On Day 22 I failed to do any squats at all as I was hosting dinner for friends in the evening and busy during the day prepping - all by myself as husband is still immobile.
I made up for it yesterday on Day 23. After a days break, I did a set of 70 squats during the day, then later on in the evening smashed my record and did 100 squats all in one go. When I got to 60ish squats which is my usual max, I thought I'd collapsed but surprisingly I didn't feel tired and had so much energy so kept on going, bit like an engine that is running very smoothly. I felt so chuffed with myself.
There were 30 more to go to make up for the previous day. I did those before
I went to bed. They were more difficult and I just about managed to complete them to complete 200 squats for the day.
Now my knees ache a little. Going to take it easy today and do small sets so I don't have injure myself.
One more week to go, got to hang in there squaters!!
Here's my progress so far
