Workout Challenge

I have been thinking about what Workout Challenge I would like to try next after the squat challenge is over.

There are a lot of options out there, however most of them are monthly challenges. That would make things easier, as I could just look at a calendar and know how many repetitions to do. But I started the squat challenge after the month had started and I don't want to wait for a new month before I start my next challenge. 

So today I looked on pinterest and got some ideas for different exercises to do. I picked 12 different exercises and used realistic repetitions for 31 days each. There are cardio challenges, arm challenges, ab challenges, leg challenges and butt challenges. This way I'm not over working the same muscles. 

I still plan on incorporating daily ab, arm and leg workouts, but I do enjoy challenging myself and it feels great to not just accomplish the challenge, but to see myself get stronger and improve my stamina for each of the workouts. 

I've chosen the following workouts and will perform them in the following order:

Squats
Donkeys
Crunches
Shoulder Press
Jumping Jacks
Side Crunches
Butt Burner
Roll Ups
Jump Rope
Tricep Dips
Sit Ups
Push Ups
