Squats
I have struggled with the exercise part of this month’s Monthly Challenge. (And a little with the water part since I have was traveling and drinking a lot of beer.

We did about an hour of body conditioning with arms, some step ups on the step board, squats, lunges, glutes and abs. We did these crazy butt exercises, which we have done in class before. They [...]
