October 4th, 30 reps of 3 exercises every day

I like this 30DayX already.

Yeah, I get it. Gym rats and health nuts are like, “yeah, wow, you’re doing your three cute little exercises every day. Impressive.” I get it because I used to be something of a gym rat.

Anyway, why do I like it? 

Here’s why. Even when I consistently work out once or twice a week, I tend to do the same exercises every week. Work out, feel sore for a day or two, and then head back to the gym to work the same muscles…

Doing a little every day means muscle groups are still sore from the previous day so I have to get pretty creative about exercises that hit different body parts that aren’t sore.

My whole body is sore at the moment, except for the parts I worked out today. Speaking of…

Today’s exercises were:

• Self-weighted squats (my legs are still a tiny bit sore from lunges)
• Leg lifts (for stomach)
• Crunches

Feels great. I’m looking forward to how I’ll feel after a month.
