Today’s 43 is a move that I got from Taylor at Lifting Revolution. She did a great post showcasing 27 types of squats!! She even has a little video gif for each one so you can see how they should be done.
I decided to try the monkey squat – I’m pretty sure that my form isn’t as good as Taylor’s. I’ve never tried this move before – I need to do them more!!
- Reach down, grab either the ankles or toes.
- Keeping your upper body completely still, bend at the knees and lower your butt towards your ankles.
- Return to starting position and repeat.

I think I bent my arms too much and I know I don’t go very low (lack of flexibility). I liked this move for a 43 and definitely plan to start doing these more often!!!
And – I decided to take a little workout break today!!!
The other day when I talked about my drive to TX, Josie (@ Yum Yucky) left a little comment referencing Willie Nelson’s song – On the Road Again. I figured that all of y’all might want this catchy tune in your head today!!!

The boys and I are headed home today – in 8.5-9 hours we will be back in Topeka!! As nice as this week as been, I’m ready to be back home!!!
Good-Bye Texas!!!
Happy Fun Friday!! (I’m not sure that this is really going to be fun Friday – we are going to do our best to make it fun while driving!!)
