Hello Bethan. Do give it a try, but don't expect immediate results, it will take couple a of months before you start to feel the benefit. We do meditation at the end, I love it it is so relaxing. I am going to my keep fit class (for over 50s) this afternoon, I always come out of that class feeling so energised.

I love Yoga and have been practising for nearly thirty years. It is not classed as "exercise", but it's for body mind and spirit, however the postures certainly help to keep you toned. Give it a try for a few weeks, I feel sure you will feel the benefit. :-D

It is my rest day today...... then 130 squats tomorrow. I must admit it is getting harder but I am enjoying it. I must be a masochist. I have been looking at the Crunch Challenge next..... think I might have a try after this. Good luck

Good luck RomanyStar....

I'm doing it again but this time with small weights in my hands , balance is hard but need to tone arms too :)
Keep going :-) Paula you're doing well , I always found when getting into the 100's after a rest day my mind was trying to postpone the next day lol

Well I finished it and have noticed a difference , that is my problem zone so 30 days is not enough for me to be happy with that area however like I said I did notice results as in toned more and jeans feel looser in areas that were tight :) good luck all

Yesterday, I did 5 lots of 10 squats at 1 hour intervals as a start. Will that count? Don't think I could manage 50 all at once!
