These chicks are kinda lazy. Their butts are not sweaty.
Everyone has some kind of sign that their workout was kick azz. For me? It’s a sweaty butt AND excess funk that makes the child-spawns run for cover.
May is almost over. If you didn’t quite do fitness the way you intended this month, there’s no reason why you can’t finish the month out strong.
This weekend, I challenge to you to the Sweaty Butt Workout of 300 fast-paced squats. It’ll be quick, because we’ve got some Memorial Day frolicking to do, so just bust it out real fast and then you’ll be done, right?
I did 300 squats as part of my Wednesday workout with Bodyrock.Tv, but I changed it up a bit to increase the funk juice:
Alternate between regular squats (100), plie squats (100) and one-legged squats (50 on each leg). Try to do these all in a row without stopping (it took me 12 minutes), but do pause for a break if you must and do not sacrifice good form. Go as fast as you can or as slow as you need to.
It was unbelievable how much of a full body workout this turned out to be. The sweaty butt was in full force.
Happy butt sweating, yo!
My knees are so bad … can’t do squats. Maybe I’ll get on the exercycle. Thanks for the motivation. It’s not too late. Vee at http://veegettinghealthy.blogspot.com

You’re right, Vee! It’s not too late and improvising is awesome. Make your end of May ROCK! xo
My sweaty butt is gon’ call your sweaty butt up and give it a stern talking to, but ok I’ll do these dang squats.
Sweaty booties UNITE!! (emm, okay, that doesn’t sound right)
Good Lord, that’s a LOT of squats! No wonder you got a sweaty butt!
I’m up for the challenge but can I substitute jump squats for one-legged squats, I’m balance challenged. 🙂
Balance challenged!? That’s why you be doing them, girl! Balance practice! Well can you at least give me 10 one-legged on each side before switching to jumps? 😉
Okay 10 each leg but if I fall…..I’ll be on the ground (No real comeback).
Garb yourself in bubble wrap first. Duh! zero injuries.
This post and idea makes me hate you and love you all at the same time.
I’m gonna do what I can and squat away.
Btw, I have bad knees and what I have found with squats is if you do them truly correctly and slowly at first, your leg and butt and core muscles are doing all the work so no impact on your knees.Â
But, hello, I am not a doctor so please don’t listen to a word I say. Just sayin’ ;P
I’m in. 🙂
I know it was a great workout when my spandex look like I peed and my shirt’s only dry spot is the outline of my sports bra! Nice!

Funny thing is, my legs didn’t even get sore. I was my abs and back muscles that got it best. Go figure.
I love this challenge! Though I’m like many above….my knees will be snap, crackling and popping but, they don’t hurt so….I gues I’m doing them okay!!!
Have a great weekend!

Girl, I’ve got that SAME crackling problem. But no knee pain, so I just keeps going.
OMG – please tell me [my] Greedy Baby isn’t under that pile. SAVE HER! 🙂
Nice job on the squats. And – I wish.Â
Have a great Memorial Day weekend.

I *might* try this workout. And I *might* get a vid of it on tha IPhone, and then on tha Tube (ala plank challenge). But I’m afraid about the 50 1-legged squats!
Lots of cute butts there! Like many of the above comments above I am not sure my knees can handle that! They already go snap, crackle, pop!
ah, i lovee one legged squats. Once I did them weighted, where like it HURT to stnad up. lets just say I could barely walk the next day. they KILL my hamstrings!!!
