In February I did the 30 Day Squat Challenge and reported on my experience doing the challenge. As I enjoyed doing it and was pleased with the results, I decided to do another squat challenge but this time upping the level a little.
For March I decided to do the 30 Day Extreme Squat Challenge. I found a pin for this challenge on Pinterest but unfortunately couldn't get the 30 Day Fitness Challenges website to work.
This challenge basically kicks off where the 30 Day Squat Challenge finished (at 250 squats) so it's consistently building the repetitions I was doing for that one.

30 Day Extreme Squat Challenge Results
Like I did with the previous challenge, I think it's important to show you what I was starting with to give you a better idea of the changes made during the challenge so you can see my before and after.
I've also made sure to wear the same active wear for all the weekly progress photos to make comparisons easier.
Now on to the challenge.
This is the week by week of how my 30 Day Extreme Squat Challenge experience went...
Week 1
During this first week I tried to do the total number of daily squats all in the one session. Doable but afterwards my legs felt like jelly.
Week 2
I'm definitely building up more resistance now and feeling stronger.
Week 3
I'm definitely getting into the habit of doing squats now.
I've already been mixing up different types of squats to work different muscles but this week I got the resistance bands I'd ordered online and so added those to make the squats work even harder.
Week 4
This week was tough as the number of repetitions was much higher.
Conclusion
Having done the 30 Day Extreme Squat Challenge for a full month I can report back that it has made a difference. I've seen an improvement on my cellulite and definitely gained more strength in my legs during this challenge. Legs and butt are both more toned now and lower stomach is also a little flatter.
Here's the before and after side by side so you can see the difference more clearly:
