Question about the 30 day squat challenge...?
Its easy to find out! just do it, its only 30 days! In strength training, the squat is a compound, full body exercise that trains primarily the muscles of the thighs, hips and buttocks, quads (vastus lateralus medialis and intermedius), hamstrings, as well as strengthening the bones, ligaments and insertion of the tendons throughout the lower body. Squats are considered a vital exercise for increasing the strength and size of the legs and buttocks, as well as developing core strength. Isometrically, the lower back, the upper back, the abdominals, the trunk muscles, the costal muscles, and the shoulders and arms are all essential to the exercise and thus are trained when squatting with proper form... Cardio will trim down the fat, and don't forget, diets goes along with everything.... Weight loss is a pyramid of diet, Cardio, and strenght training and to be honest about 80% of that is diet. good luck!

All the push up challenges generally start with a smaller number and gradually increase the number of reps every day as you progress along the ladder.There may or may not be rest days.Sounds a lot like a simple theory we all should keep in mind when training - progressive overload.
