Funny story: I have a bunch of friends doing the squat challenge with me and they are all complaining about sore legs. I kept thinking they were crazy because I wasn't really that sore. So they made me show them a squat and, apparently, I've been doing them wrong all along. Come on, how hard is a squat?? I even watched a Youtube video to see the proper technique. But, this uncoordinated body, just couldn't seem to squat without having my knees go further than my feet. I am now using a wall as my guide so my positioning is better, lol.... I feel really stupid!!
And those sit ups.... I just can't do them. I must be really and truly out of shape. I decided to do more crunches and eliminate the sit ups.... what can a girl do?? Maybe they'll get easier as the month goes on. My favorite is the plank, even though it is difficult, I can feel it working my entire core and my lower back. I am just not too sure I will be able to hold one for 2 minutes... that is a long time.
The reason for my post this morning is to share a recipe with you that I am going to make (or attempt to make) this weekend. These look amazing and I can't wait to try them. They are made with my company's vanilla flavored protein powder, but I am sure you can use any kind. If you want to know more about our products, fill in the contact form!
Don't they just look amazing?.. I can't wait to try it!!
I'd like to hear from you... how are your challenges going? Do you have any protein based recipes to share??
I can't do sit-ups either. I have been skipping those and focusing on the other 3 with the squats. I must have a very week core!
