Stress Free Holiday Workout Plan

Workouts usually fly out the window during the holiday season primarily due to lack of time, stress, and lack of energy but the stress free holiday workout plan is easy to follow. Just perform the 12 quick workouts below and remember to be flexible. You can shift things around to fit your needs as long as you get all twelve workouts done.

5 Quick Tips to Boost Motivation: Try to get this done first thing in the morning in your sleepwear or right after you get home from work. Don't think about it doing it just go thru the motions; it's about movement not perfection. Drink water before, during, after. Eat something small, high protein, and healthy shortly after your workout. Smile and have fun with it!

Sun. 12/3 10-20 minute walk around your neighborhood, 2 minutes tree pose.
