There is a squat challenge – challenging enough for the body.
How to do it in simplified version?
- Start on the first day (it’s easier if it is on the first day of the month to calcualate)
- Count the numbers of repetitions.
- Select any type of squate that you like. Here are some ideas:
- Do following repetitions of the squat:
- Day 01 – 10 squts
- Day 02 – 20 squts
- Day 03 – 30 squts
- Day 04 – 40 squts
- Day 05 – 50 squts
- …
- Day 10 – 100 squts
- Day 11 – 110 squts
- …
- Day 20 – 200 squts
- Day 30 – 300 squts
But there is also unusual squat challenge – challenging for both body and soul.
According to new research this challeng will improve the Brainpower!!
- Start on the first day (it’s easier if it is on the first day of the month to calcualate)
- Count the number of minutes.
- The Crossed Squat Breathing Technique
- Stand with your feet about shoulder distance apart, toes pointing forward
- Hold your right ear lobe between your left thumb and finger
- Hold your left ear lobe between your right thumb and finger.
- You should now be holding both earlobes with your arms crossed over your chest.
- Squat down by bending your knees and lowering your body toward the floor, breathe in while doing this.
- Go as low as you can comfortably manage and then raise yourself back to a standing position, breathing out as you raise yourself back up.

- Do following repetitions of the squat:
- Day 01 – 10 seconds
- Day 02 – 20 seconds
- Day 03 – 30 seconds
- Day 04 – 40 seconds
- Day 05 – 50 seconds
- …
- Day 10 – 100 seconds
- Day 11 – 110 seconds
- …
- Day 20 – 200 seconds
- Day 30 – 300 seconds
The results? For the first one, it is easy, you will easily do these 300 squats and feel great.
For the second challenge – I don’t know, but I guess we will be able to do 5 minutes of squates with holind our ear lobes between the tumb and the finger of opposite arm. I don’t even know how to test it. Maybe with some brain-game? I will share the feeling after 30 days 🙂 for both of them.
And yes, doing this… have fun:
If You are not challenged enough, add planks, abs-workout, etc… just use the same numbers of repetitions.
Comment here if you’ll do it! Thnx 🙂
