Up for a new fitness or wellness challenge? Seems like everywhere you look all kinds of creative 30 day challenges abound. From yoga to squats, to planks to meditation. You name it. There is a challenge for it! How great is that? I have put together a whole year’s worth of 30 day challenges for you. Bonus: you can do them all at home. Pick one or pick them all. Better yet, pin them for later! You are following me on Pinterest right?
A Year’s Worth of 30 Day Challenges
Blogilates Ab Challenge
I like the look of this challenge. It is reasonable and doable with a small time commitment.
30 Day Superman, Squats & twists
This one is from my friend Rachel at Running on Happy. I like the combination of exercises in an easy to follow format.
30 Day walking challenge

30 day stationary bike challenge
30 Day Butt and leg Boost
When every day is leg day!
30 Day Strong Arm Challenge
Because tank top season will be here before you know it!
30 Day Plank Challenge
There are tons of plank challenges out there. I like how doable this one is.
30 Day Squat and skip rope challenge
30 Day Gratitude Challenge
30 Day Yoga Challenge
Get your Om on every day for a month.
30 Day Self Care Challenge
I like this one a lot!
30 Day Meditation Challenge
I have such a hard time with meditation! I could use this one.
My favorite challenge is the #3for31 from Robin Arzon of Peloton fame. Basically, you commit to moving your body for 30 min or 3 miles for the 31 days of December.
Why pick just one challenge this year?! From yoga, to meditation, to squats, to self care and planks. There is enough healthy motivation for everyone and every interest here. Which wellness challenge will you do? Have you done any other monthly challenges you would suggest to me?
Thanks for helping to make the Runners’ Roundup a huge success by visiting all of the hosts: Me, Debbie, Jen, Lisa
Very inspiring challenges! Thanks for collecting all these ideas!
I have never done a 30-day challenge, simply because I never thought of it. I am going to carefully choose one from your selection, adapt it to my needs and try it!
Great hope you have fun with it
I really like the idea of the non-fitness challenges! I think now we should all look at the gratitude and be more positive challenges!
Thanks it sure cannot hurt!
That’s a whole lot of challenges — you’ve done your home work! Too bad the one i’k Working on isn’t ready yet. And I have ideas for more to come . . .
Love Blogilates!
Great can’t wait to see yours too!
These are great!! I love doing monthly challenges (you probably already knew that LOL). I’m current doing a similar ab challenge for Lent, but am gonna pin this for future reference. Thanks!
Great thanks!
I love this list! Will put myself through a 30-day hamstring stretch challenge. I just did a 100-mi challenge run/walk/hike in February. Would also love to do a yoga pose challenge again.
Fantastic! The hamstring stretch sounds good to me too
This is great! I love challenges. I just finished one. So, this is perfect.
They are fun to do
I may print off that flat ab challenge! I also like the self care and meditation challenges too!
All good choices
I love how these are separated by category! Truly so so helpful! This is a great list of workouts! Thank you!
Thanks hope you find one or two that interest you
These are great. I should be able to find one LOL
Which one are you doing?
I don’t know yet! I might try to do them all next year! They are all pretty doable
So much work goes into creating these challenges — I really appreciate that now! Thank for searching out such great challenges, Deborah, and Happy Hannukah!
Yes a lot of work indeed! happy hannukah to you as well
Wow! They all look great. Thanks for a whole year’s worth of challenges to pick from. My gym was just closed again for several weeks (at least) due to COVID. I need some stuff I can do at home. The ab challenge looks…challenging! I don’t know if I could do even 1 roll up. Something to work on.
You can definitely do it. Sounds like the perfect challenge for you!
I think 30 day challenges are a great way to not only try new things (with a short term commitment) but also allow for focusing on a particular muscle group that may need a little extra attention. A lot of my challenges, like these, have morphed into my daily/weekly routine 🙂
Yes they are a fun way to try new things that we may end up really enjoying
I should do the flat abs challenge but I am most likely to do the gratitude challenge! I will be printing that one out! Thanks
You have plenty of time do both!
This is such an amazing round up! Switching up your workouts is so essential so your muscles don’t get used to the same thing! Love this post!!
Yes exactly!
These are so fun! I love blogilates!
I know so fun!
So many great options! I’ve been trying to get back into yoga, so maybe this challenge will be good for me!
Fantastic enjoy it! I always feel better when I have yoga in my life
Yay, what great challenges! I really need to start working on my fitness levels. At the moment it’s just walking and lifting my big toddler! 🙂
well that is a workout!
This is so perfect! I can’t believe you compiled an entire year’s worth of workouts in one post! Such a great resource!
thanks it is always fun to mix it up a bit. Now is the perfect time
These are awesome! I recently dusted off my spin bike and I’m really enjoying getting back into it. So, I might have to jump on that stationary bike challenge!
OH great that sounds perfect!
I like the sefl care challenge (because it includes a power nap!) The one I should really do is the meditation challenge. Well… maybe i will! It’s not a big time commitment and it would be good for me. Thanks for these awesome ideas.
meditation has always been super challenging for me too!
I love all these ideas. Small changes in our routine – even just 5 minutes a day – can have an enormous impact over a month. Will you be doing the 3 for 31 challenge next month?
I agree, small changes can make huge impacts. Yes, I will be doing the #3for31 challenge again. It’s very doable for me and I love the interaction w the community
Great ideas here! Doing a 30 day challenge right now can really help you stay on track during the busy holidays season.
I agree! These are all pretty easy to add into a busy holiday schedule
These are great! I’m not very good at sticking with challenges but these look fun and very doable.
I think sometimes people take them on without planning out how to implement them into their schedules. I hope I offered some that can seamlessly fit into a busy schedule
Thanks so much… these are great… something for everyone.
I’m not into challenges or streaking but I do think I could do the Gratitude one and the Accountability one.
Thanks, I tried to pick a wide range that people can easily fit into their busy schedules
These all look very doable, especially for beginners or those who are short on time (Umm, that’s pretty much everyone, LOL). I agree, meditation is tough! I’m not skilled with that either!
I have never been able to stick with or get into meditation. My mind just wanders!
These are great! I should turn some of the challenges I set up for my clients into infographics and share them on my blog.
Yes that’s a great idea
This post is so fun! I love a good challenge. I think the jump rope one would actually be a challenge for me because I’m not great at it!
jump rope is always harder than I expect!
