Default 30 Day Squat/Press-up/Abs challenge!

Hey

I'm just on day 3 of these challenges at the moment and feeling very sore so thought I'd ask anyone if they would like to join/have done this before?

Unfortunately, and rather miserably for a 23 year old, I am so weak I've had to adapt these simple exercises. I literally can't do more than 1 actual press up so I'm doing a "half" press up (with my knees) and I'm not sure about sit ups but I know from yesterday that I had to do 8 in the morning and 8 in the evening in order to achieve the full 16. It was dire. ha ha.

I'm not expecting visible results but the hope is that if I can complete these then my muscles will be strong enough to squat weights at the gym and actually do a real life press up! :O Also I have zero muscles in my abdomen and I always avoid those work outs at the gym so it's a good way to make me do them!

Any success stories? Any tips? Anyone want to join me?

I've done the 30 day squat challenge in the past, I thought it helped a lot in shaping the thighs and the butt. It gets easier to some degree as the days go by because you get used to the movement. I've never seen the press up or the abs challenges. Can you post them here? I might consider doing them with you for the month of January
