The Bring Sally Up Challenge
What is Bring Sally Up?
Bring Sally Up originally started as a squat challenge. This challenge that is only a few minutes long but will always leave you struggling to walk.
The Bring Sally Up Challenge can also be done with other movements, such as push-ups, burpees, handstand push-ups or almost anything.
How do you do Bring Sally Up?
First, play the song “Flowers” by Moby. 🌷 We have it listed here for you!
This song comes complete with instructions on what to do. When the song says bring Sally down, you go to the bottom of a squat and hold until you hear “bring Sally up” then you stand. Repeat to the completion of the song.
If you’re doing a movement other than squats you follow the same idea.
Sounds too easy?
If you’re doing the squat challenge we recommend doing it with weight. Try out the weight options below:
☠️Beginner: 35#
☠️Intermediate: 65#
☠️Advanced. 95#
Listen to what others are saying after doing Sally…
We recently did Sally as a challenge in our fitness FB group! Here’s a list of comments made by people after they did Bring Sally Up with squats for the first time. If you’ve never done Sally before this should give you a pretty good idea of what you’re in for!












So if you’ve never done Bring Sally Up before, or if you’re a beginner give it a try with air squats. If you’re more advanced we’d recommend trying it with a weighted barbell. A kettlebell or dumbbell(s) will work as well but holding something in the front rack position for that long might make it suck even more.

I have a love hate relationship with Sally.
My wife & I actually incorporated it in our wedding.
We used it as a bonding ceremony for our love & commitment to continuing to support each other on our health and fitness journey.
My wife loves Sally.
She once did courtesy weighted squats to Sally – back to back – yes – two go rounds!
