You know how you know you did squats? Stairs.
Wait until tomorrow. You will curse your stairs.
We use the latest in scientific technology and state-of-the-art weaponry and you, if I understand correctly, poke them with a sharp stick.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
And tomorrow I have to do 50! According to the challenge. I'll stick to the challenge as much as I can, because if I go off script, soon I won't be doing anything. You can't leave me to my own devices; my devices are Nap and Eat.

Five minutes later I walk in the living room, and he's got Jilli's Tumblr on his screen.
Ha! Please report on what he decides to wear.
For me, I have to worry about my knees.
Yeah, that's my worry about the squat challenge. My knees have been getting crankier and crankier about going up stairs.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
I did the challenge and my lower back is not cranky anymore. It made a huge difference. My current goal is to do 100 almost everyday- I have my eye on skirt I want when I hit 30 days. I plan to take less than 40 to get there.

If you do squats right it will not hurt your knees. And it should strengthen all the muscles around your knees- which will hep them. But I would go really slow and careful

Compassionately intolerant
I have to be very cautious with my knees, but the squat challenge did not adversely effect them.
I got to 120 squats and then petered out...for other than physical reasons.
Y'all have inspired me to start again today.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Beth, that makes sense. I just don't have all the muscles that most people can rely on or everything aligned properly. So, it can be trickier for me not to hurt myself.
We're on our way to the wedding. I'm regretting my decision not to refill my anxiety meds.

I've been on the "squats=will wreck my knees" thought train myself. But hearing the good things it does for hips and lower backs, I shall have to research further.
