Workout Wednesday: Start Prepping for the Holidays Now!

Workout Wednesday: Start Prepping for the Holidays Now!

We all know it’s a little crazy when we start seeing Christmas decorations popping up in stores immediately after Halloween. (If not before!) But maybe they have a point? Maybe we should start getting (our bodies) ready for the holidays a little earlier, rather than doing damage control afterwards.

Now, we aren’t saying that if you prep now, you can binge on whatever you want between Thanksgiving and New Years. Nevertheless, you’ll be much more likely to maintain a healthy physique and bounce back from those few indiscretions–come on, we’re only human–if you get into a healthy routine NOW.

So, to kick off the holiday season right, let’s start with this simple workout. Try incorporating this once a week into your routine.

Seriously, some of the madness that occurs at the stores on Black Friday seem more intense than those muddy obstacle course races we all have come to love. Check out the video below. (Not showing up? View it on our YouTube channel.)
