100K Squats
« on: August 17, 2009, 12:31:24 PM »
OK, we jump all over the place and we have 100K push-ups, pull-ups, and dips... no squats?

Anything counts: Air Squats, Back Squats, Front Squats, Clean Squats, Thrusters


Let's do this!

As 2!  :D

Damn though... I've done so many squats in my 15 months, it's not even funny! I remember this one XF WOD I did that involved 250 squats! Not to mention all of my back squats. Oh, and I've done at least 50 pistols a leg in all of that time, too. This is going to be a monster to calculate...  :P

You may want to make it a 1 million squats though, 'cause if Chris and Steve and Charles post in here, this thread will be over before it even begins!  ;D

Strength > Numbers

I know I won't be contributing much as the most I do is 25 reps in an entire workout.  XD

LOL, yeah, I do tons of squats too, as you can probably tell. I do some variation of squatting almost on a daily basis.

What about all the squats you've already done? At least a round estimate of them...

I'm too lazy to try and count up ALL of the squats I've done in my training, so I'll just add a nice low-average-of-a-general-estimate.

Once I'm done with my rest week and start training again I'll join you.  I'm thinking this might be good motivation for a couple tabata sessions.  :-*

Ah, phooey! Guess I can't do that here. Well, it'll be a while before I get any significant number of squats in right now, but rest assured! I will be back!  :P [WTF]

LOL... yeah, the idea is to get you guys doing squats. If we did that, this thread would be over before it even got started.

I did some 20 for warmup on saturday, so...

My heart beat is pounding in my ears.  This is good motivation for me.  Can anyone describe to me or show a video (on video (dot) google (dot) com, preferably) of pistol squats?

OK, let's count pistols as 2, but that's it! I don't want to get into the whole debate of "But what if I did back squats at twice my body-weight" bla bla... Only pistols count as 2.

Agreed!

24 squats and 3 pistols each leg = 30
