Between all the festive cheer, delicious foods and heartfelt gatherings, the holiday season is packed with goodness. However, the activities and treats this time of year make maintaining health and fitness more challenging than ever.
Which is why I created this 60 Day Holiday Fitness Challenge.
From Halloween to New Years, the holiday season ultimately stretches the entire two months of November and December.
It starts out with a bang on November 1st with leftover Halloween candy (yum!) and continues to escalate with Thanksgiving comfort foods, delicious Christmas treats and tasty New Year’s beverages.
Not to mention the extended hours of darkness, colder weather and plenty of social obligations that leave us spending more time indoors than ever before.
And while these activities and treats certainly should be enjoyed, it’s important not to lose sight of health and fitness amidst all of the chaos this time of year.
This Holiday Fitness Challenge is a great way to prioritize activity even when things are busy, as it breaks down each day’s tasks and challenges. Making time for yourself during the holiday season is crucial for your enjoyment and success as the year comes to a close.
How does the Holiday Fitness Challenge work?
The Holiday Fitness Challenge stretches for 60 days, starting on November 1st and taking you all the way through the end of the year. Each day consists of a different holiday workout, starting off very simple and gradually increasing in intensity.
In addition, each day you’ll complete a daily set of squats, lunges, push ups and sit ups to build strength and muscle. Throughout the Holiday Fitness Challenge, the number of exercises will increase by 1 each day.
For example, on day 1, you’ll complete 1 squat, lunge, push up and sit up. By day 30, you’ll be completing 30 squats, 30 lunges, 30 push ups and 30 sit ups, continuing all the way to day 60.
The daily holiday workouts consist of simple movements and exercises to keep you active and sane throughout the holiday season, without overdoing anything.
