    I am a very active 72 year old that exercises (upper body) 6 days a week plus diy projects. Today I finished my first 30 days of squats. Focusing on form, protecting my knees and improving cardio, I did not use any weights. It greatly improved walking, carrying, bending, etc. My sciatic pain is 99% gone. I gained 1" in my thighs. This is now my first exercise...every day. Thanks!

Hoping to build something back without hitting hard weights due to knees. This video was just the motivation I needed to start tomorrow.

    Bodyweight squat is one of the top exercise used in Kyokushin karate, i remember doing 300-400 air squat when i was 16, my legs where hard as rocks and when i kick even if i was skinny i had some serious KO power. Also bodyweight squat you are not going to get injured like regular squats, no pressure on upper back and neck or lower back, and knee since you don't have a bar with 300 pounds.

    • @travis3430
      @travis3430 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Sit ups, if you round you back too much at the top of the movement, can cause some back pain over time. I heard somewhere the army no longer recommend high volume sit ups regularly like they used to.
      I use a knee tuck whilst hanging from a pull up bar. I like to do 1 pull up or chin up 1st though (this helps to set my shoulder blades in a more comfortable position for some reason) then I just hang there with my knees up. It seems to work pretty well.
      I also use an ab roller but I'm careful with that (too much of that can tweak your back also). I exercise at least 30 mins a day. Great for your health... including mental health!!! 👍👍👍

    This is basically the equivalent of "nucleus overload training" so ideally you would want to take a 2 week break following the 30 days of doing 100 per day, then rinse and repeat and watch the gains in size and strength that you acquire over time, they will be huge!

    I recently started a 100/28. 100/28, 100/28 program. Basically what that is, is to do 100 squats a day for the first 28 days, then while continuing the 100 squats, add in 100 push-ups for 28 days, following that by including 100 pull-ups a day. I am currently on day 29. I spent around 10 days to work my way into doing 50 squats in 1 set, and 2 sets a day, so by the time I started my 1st 28-day session, I was doing 100 squats with good form, and no pain. During the last 28 days, I've been building up my push-ups, and got myself to the 100 a day mark (5 x 20), yesterday (1 day early), and now, while continuing 100 squats and 100 push-ups a day, I am starting to build up to the hardest part, adding 100 pull-ups. I've been doing a bit of hanging off the bar and a couple of pull-ups here and there for a few days, and today did 4 sets of 5. I feel that is not too bad, and with 27 days to go, I should be comfortably able to get to 100 a day.

      ​@@SimpleManChannel The 4 sets of pull-ups were just a little too hard on my poor unworked lats, and I'm a bit sore. So today, instead of doing more, I just used the pull-up bar for some hanging and stretching.
      In the last few weeks, to loosen up for the push-up routine, I've been doing 45º push-ups against the kitchen bench. I've been putting a pot of coffee on, and while waiting, I do 50 quick squats, and 50x45º push-ups. Just manage to get them finished by the time the coffee's ready.

      Do the squats standing then squat down in a chair if you need to. Build your self up until you don't need the chair. Squats will help your legs, core, and posture.

    While I appreciate the simplicity of this challenge and admire your discipline to do 100 squats for 30 days, I have to say that just a little bit of variety would greatly amplify your leg workout benefits. Here is a short list of different leg exercises one could mix and match while still executing 100 reps: side squats, walking lunges, door handle assisted one-leg squats, jump squats. And for those that desire a bit more challenge, put a small sand bag in a back pack, then wear it over your chest for added resistance. Wearing the backpack on your chest rather than your back shifts your center of gravity back and allows you to bring your shoulders back, thus allowing your quads to work even harder.

I also do auxiliary leg exercises for good injury and pain resistance, plus walk almost every day now.

I will come back and tell you if I see some drastic change bye I have a solid cardio foundation its just that after doing lots of cardio I realised it may be good for health But it doesn't do anything for looks unless you like to be skinny with some veins popping here and there.

    If you have trouble with balance, I would suggest holding the dumbbell closer to your body and your chest should be lifted along with your head and eyes, closer to the ceiling. Arch your back with the butt out but not too forced. You can also put a shim under heels until your body/tendons, muscles get used to the movement and positioning.

  • @nikitaw1982

    all these challenges are interesting. i"d like to just commit to 30 minutes in the morning or before dinner of just what ever I'm in the mood for, maybe alternate body parts day to day maybe one or 2 full body days a week. in the past i've just set a 4 minute timer to warm up then 20 minutes of exercises to hypertrophy and no break before the next exercise to keep heart rate up. i did at home so room smelt like old sweat pretty quick which is only draw back. no travel time to and from the gym, saved money, easily wedge it in between other things. i've been spending money on gym membership for at least 3 years and probably went less than 30 percent of that time. maybe quit them and if i commit to a fitness program at home for say 2 months then let my self think of the gym. i would like to do something social. maybe sharing online is the way to go even if not alot of fans, just for the social element. or just do the home 30 minutes for testosterone boost and clarity of thought and better sleep and socialize other ways.

    Physiologically I really feel you'd be better off doing every other day to allow muscle to recover and grow...throw in varied lunges and move adding pistol squats after a month or so even if doing supported. Adding deadlifts with dumbells, swiss ball single leg kick backs too, all helps hit the legs from different angles and helps joint health. Amazing work tho bro. Using this method helped turn me into a National champion ski racer. It leaves time for busy schedules and so you don't neglect core and upper body plus flexibility
