Squat your...

Everyone says diamonds are a girls best friend, but that is false SQUATS are a girls best friend.

I have been doing these with my workouts since I started. The thing is though that are 250 million variations of squats. Ok maybe I over exaggerated that number a little bit. Seriously though look it up there are lots of different types of squats. So for the month of March my mommy fitness group is doing a squat challenge, but not the same old one everyday. We are doing lots of different versions. So join us won't you.

Haven't heard of half of these? Well that is ok. Here are some tutorials for you. Feel free to contact me if you need any further explanations. Or follow me on Facebook at www.facebook.com/losingitwith3
