This workout will help you get into the swing of the holidays, both mentally and physically. The 12-day workout is designed to progress from day to day, and similar to the song, each day we will be adding an additional exercise. Although a few primary exercises on the first few days may not seem like much, it’s meant to be a starting point, and can help you develop a health-focused mindset during a time of year when people tend to struggle the most. Feel free to add your own creative spark, maybe starting with a walk or jog. Then on day 12 you will perform all 12 exercise as a grand finale.
