Here are the small habits we’re incorporating into our daily lives.

  1. We’re drinking water before we drink other beverages.
  2. We’re adding a serving of fruit or veggies before each meal.
  3. We’re adding more movement to our day.
  4. We are performing 5 minutes of gentle stretches before we get out of bed in the morning.
  5. We are focusing on some rest or relaxation time on a daily basis.
  6. Replacing calorie-laden, nutritionally-barren snacks with fruits and veggies.

Today’s Challenge

Today is another strength training day. We’re going to do one of the exercises recommended on Day 6 to strengthen our lower bodies.

This time, increase the difficulty just a little bit in one of three ways:

  • Go just a little bit heavier.
  • Go just a little bit further.
  • Go for a longer period of time.

It really is that simple. Since it’s the weekend, it might be a good day for a hike with a backpack.

What are you doing for lower body strength training?

Share your routine in the comments. And let me know if you’re still enjoying the challenge!

  • This is a good series. I like it. Fitness and preparedness should go hand in hand.
    Hikes,rucking, dead lifts, stair climber are all things I incorporate into my daily workouts. I usually save deadlifts for Friday’s so I’ve got the weekend to recover.
