We’re finally done with the #SquatsTo120 challenge and have our winners! Congrats @sassyxfit - you win the sports bra from @rudefitnessng, the amazing 🇳🇬 fitness brand. And congrats to @ay.tryn2bfit - you win the delicious 350g of granola from @healthy_treats_by_buttercup. As was stated in the challenge introduction, you must have a Lagos address to deliver to. Please expect details on your gift! And tag @franfitlane and @eightsnweights when you receive them 🙂 Thank you again for participating! . . . The winners were chosen based on 3 things: daily participation, innovation, and form. . . . So we also wanted to talk about some form corrections to help you do squats better: 🏋🏿♀️There were a few curved backs. Remember to try to keep your back straight! 🏋🏿♀️When you jump in a squat, try not to collapse as you land. 🏋🏿♀️Knees over toes rather than leading inwards or outwards. Wrong posture can put massive pressure on the knees. 🏋🏿♀️Squeeze as you come up to maximize the squat. #eightsnweights #SquatsTo120 #nigeria #squatchallange #fitfamng #fitnessnaija #weightlosssupport #weightlosetips #naijabrandchick #hustlergang #franfitlane #weightloss #weightlossjourney #squatchallange #fitfamng #fitnigeria #nigeriafitam #fitnessnaija #weightlosssupport

I did it today and 😫 The feet start close together but are more than hip width apart as you move side to side. And you stay low the whole set so try not to get up out of the squat between reps. . . To do a walking squat: . . ✔Start with your feet just a couple of inches apart. Knees should be over the toes. ✔Drive your butt down without rounding your back. There may be a little natural curve but it shouldn’t be excessive. Look forward with arms stretched in front of you to help. ✔Take a big step to one side while still staying low and keeping your knees over your toes. Bring the other foot to join that foot. That's one rep. ✔Repeat on the other side and continue this back and forth motion without standing up (remain in the squat position) . . Things to watch out for when doing a walking squat: ✖Your upper body should not roll forward. ✖Do not stand up in between squats. . . .
