  • 1,000 rep bodyweight squat challenge
    Hello everyone!
    Firstly, I want to say this is a challenge, and whether you are aiming for the full 1,000 or 500 or your first 100 bodyweight squats, please make sure you are listening to your body throughout.
    If you are completely new to squats, I recommend sitting this challenge out and focus on form and ensuring you do not gain any joint pain or lower back pain during or after the exercises and allow a period of time before moving onto any challenges or weight loading with barbells or dumbbells etc.
    This is just for fun guys! And a tough one it is!
    5 slight variations on traditional squat position performed for 100 reps and repeat again!
    traditional squat position
    No hips in at top of squat
    Close stance squat
    Sumo stance squat
    Pulse squat
    This should be a fun challenge to do if you have 30 minutes and want to test your muscular endurance and strength!
    You will 100% feel this in your quads, hamstrings, glutes and core!
    If you feel any lower back ache or joint issues please stop the exercise immediately.
    Enjoy!!

    Hi Caroline! Great workout!! I am 57 years old and this was my first time doing this challenge, but I made it to 600 squats!!! 🤗🤗. I will be challenging myself to reach 1,000 squats next time. Thank you so much for being a great coach and motivating us to get in the best shape! ❤️❤️👏👏

    What is up with you people in the comments? I'm a pretty fit guy and I saw 1,000 squats and figured it was a joke. And then, she does it, and everyone in the comments be like "Yeah, I did it, but it was tough and my legs feel like jelly." I got to 250 and started to giggle---no way I'd get to 300, let alone 1,000! HAT OFF TO Y'ALL!

    lol, Caroline said she hoped she counted right-watching butterflies 😂 I lost count on the last round of sumo squats too because of my mind wandering, so I just followed along with Caroline. It seemed long so I went back and watched and counted after finishing the challenge. She did 150 of that round! So, I you, like me, followed her, we did 1050 squats! 💪🏻🦵

    I'm sure I'm incredibly late to the game on this. But I attempted this workout, i burned out around 800 reps. I've spent the last two days having serious conversations with all of the fibers in my legs.
    What enjoyed about this workout was how "happy" Caroline seemed.
    Caroline! Thank you for the message! I'm going to try this again in 3 months when my legs recover!

    You're such a amazing trainer that I'm seeing so much improvement.
    Never expected my quads to last that long. I'm amazed. After 500 I needed a minute break. & after 900 I took 2 minutes.
    But I make it to 1000! 😂😂😂
    btw: Last week I did the leg press after 5 months. I had been stuck on the same weight for a very long time, maybe years. After training with you for 2 month, I tried 130kg instead the usally 120. After 12 reps I knew I could even do it with 140. & yes, all the sets without problem. All that thanks to your way of training. Big thanks x 💓 Now rest rest rest.

      @CarolineGirvan  3 роки тому +3

      Yes I’d love to know! Results depend on the person.. if you did this 2x per week and didn’t squat to your sufficient depth, didn’t move your body through the week and ate more calories than you burn then results are very different to someone who trains hard and really pushes that depth, moves through the week ie. daily steps and works entire body! 😉🤩

    2nd time and the burn is REAL 🥵🍑You will feel this workout for at least two days after you do it.
