Squat Ladder challenge with friends

From 20 to 150 squats in 30 days.

The 30-day squat challenge is a steady ladder from 20 to 150 bodyweight squats a day. No equipment, about ten minutes, and you will feel the difference climbing stairs by week three.

With RallyStreak your friends can pick their own level, and everyone’s reps add up to a group total in the end-of-challenge recap.

How to do it

  1. Feet shoulder-width apart, toes slightly out.
  2. Sit back and down until your thighs are about parallel, keeping your chest up and heels down.
  3. Split the day’s target into sets.
  4. Log your reps; partial days are tracked honestly.

The rules

  • 3 strikes allowed; when strikes run out you are out, but stay on the board to cheer the others.
  • No rest days.
  • Your day runs midnight to midnight in your time zone, and you can still check in until 3 AM.
  • Missed yesterday? Up to two earlier days can be logged, marked “logged late” for the group to see.
