Week 1 (January 1, 2024): “BARA goals”
Your task: Write a top 5 list of what you want to achieve this year.
If you have more than 5 goals, you can make the list longer. The list will help you stay focused, even when things get tough. Have the list easily accessible in the house so you can look at it when you need it, for example on the refrigerator, bedside table, or mirror. Tip: Your goals should be measurable (see examples below).
Example of 5 goals:
When you have finished your list you can share your goals on social media by using #barahabit24 as a hashtag and #baragoals. Maybe you’ll inspire your followers to write their own list?
Squat Week - Week 2
Your task: Do 1000 squats in 1 week!
Are you ready for a fitness challenge that will sculpt and tone your lower body like never before? Week 2 of our #BaraHabit24 series is here, and we're diving headfirst into "Squat Week." Brace yourself for the ultimate challenge: completing 1000 squats in just seven days! Sounds intimidating? Fear not! We've got a plan to make it not only achievable but also exhilarating.
You can either do 142 squats per day for 7 days = 1000 squats
Or divide it as you like, until the total is 1000.
The 1000-squat challenge might seem daunting, but breaking it down into a daily routine makes it surprisingly manageable. Imagine conquering 142 squats each day for a week – that's the secret formula to success! Alternatively, feel free to customize your approach and distribute the squats as you see fit throughout the week. By the end of the six-week challenges, you'll be amazed at the transformation – and we're confident you'll nail this one too!
Upload a photo/video of yourself on social media and tell us about what it was like to do 1000 squats in one week. Remember to use the hashtags #barahabit24 and #squatweek. Maybe you’ll inspire your followers to do squats too?

Your task: Take push-ups for every day for 1 week.
Welcome to Week 4 of 2024! This year we're dedicated to empowering you on your fitness and health journey. This week, we're diving into the invigorating #PushUpTime challenge. Get ready to strengthen those arms and core as we guide you through a week of daily push-ups.
Day 1: Push Your Limits Start strong by performing as many push-ups as you can. Don't worry about the number; just give it your all. Whether on your knees, against the wall (perfect for beginners), or regular push-ups, find your starting point.
Day 2-6: Progress Daily Each day, aim to match or exceed the number of push-ups from the previous day. Incremental progress is the key to building strength. Consistency is your companion on this journey.

Week 5 January 30, 2024: “The Plank”
Your task: Do the plank for every day for 1 week! Starting this Tuesday.
How to enter: Post a picture or video of yourself on social media each day of this journey and share your challenge with us. Use the hashtag #barahabit24 and tell us if it was hard or not.
Doing the plank is both a physical and mental test. If you practice doing the plank every day, you’ll see results in a short matter of time! In addition, this exercise is very good for core muscles. Depending on your fitness level, you should adjust the plank exercise accordingly.
Beginner level? Start with the plank on your knees. When you manage to stand like this for a minute, move on to standing on your toes.
Experienced? Try putting an exercise mat/yoga mat under your hands and/or something else that creates an imbalance. This will make the exercise extra challenging.
The goal? Increase your starting point from day 1 to the last day of the week. For example: If you manage to do the plank for 1 minute the first day, the goal is to manage 2 minutes at the end of the week.
Tip:
Upload a photo/video of yourself on social media and tell us how it was to do the plank for one week. Was it hard? Easy-peasy? Remember to use the hashtags #barahabit24 and #theplank. Maybe you’ll inspire your followers to do the plank too?

Run, go for a walk, do yoga, strength training, vacuum, dance, lift weights, do CrossFit, kickboxing ... the choice is yours! This is also a perfect time to try something new.

Week 7 : "Stairs only"
Your task: This week, elevators or escalators are not allowed. Your task is to walk, jog or run up all the stairs you come across in your everyday life.
How to enter: Post a picture or video of yourself on social media each day of this journey and share your challenge with us. Share what activity you decided to do and why. Use the hashtag #barahabit24 and tell us if it was hard or not.
Choosing stairs over an elevator, or escalator, may sound like a simple and doable task, but when you are in a hurry and may have to go far, it can still be challenging. This exercise should remind you that it’s the small things in life that together can make the big differences. Choosing an active lifestyle often starts in the small - and this week it starts with the first step!
If you have no stairs nearby, you can choose to use a stair machine (many gyms have these), or go upstairs at home for 5 min. a day.
Upload a photo or video of yourself on social media as you climb stairs using the hashtags #barahabit24 and #stairsonly. Maybe you’ll inspire your followers to go up the stairs too!

Struggling to touch your toes? You're not alone. Many of us spend hours seated at work, leading to mobility issues. But fear not, we've got the solution! With just 5 minutes of daily stretching, you'll see significant improvements and feel the difference.
Whether you prefer targeting specific exercises or opting for a comprehensive full-body program, the choice is yours!
Try this simple stretch: Stand tall with your back straight. Take slow, deep breaths as you slowly bend forward, reaching for the ground with your hands while keeping your legs straight.

Choose a mobility program tailored to your flexibility level. Whether you're already flexible or starting from scratch, there's a program for you.
Upload a photo/video of yourself on social media and tell us about what it was like to do mobility exercises. Was it painful? Relaxing? Remember to use the hashtags #barahabit24 and #stretch. Maybe you’ll inspire your followers too?
