WORKOUTS, RECIPE GUIDES, LIFESTYLE TIPS AND MORE TO SURVIVE & THRIVE THROUGH THE HOLIDAY JIVE
4 Fast, Fat-Blasting Bodyweight Workouts
The average person can gain 6-15lbs from November 1st
through January 1st. Busy schedules,
holiday parties and stress lead to this dramatic weight gain. More importantly, this lifestyle is unhealthy
and prevents us from our ultimate goal of becoming fit.
The manual is not just another “workout” plan. Our goal is that you will not only “survive” but thrive during this wonderful time.

Most of us already know the benefits of proper exercise, nutrition and rest. Unfortunately, during the holidays our priorities can become a bit misaligned and we begin to sacrifice this area.
Exercise, nutrition and rest not only helps prevent weight gain, they also fight the stress and anxiety that commonly accompanies this time of year. Cortisol is the stress hormone and it can lead to increases in fat production and storage as well as stress levels. Needless to say, the holidays are no time to stop exercising.
It is possible to become extremely busy over the holiday
season. But being busy is no reason to
be unhealthy. Below are 4 workouts that
you can do anywhere, anytime. All of the
workouts are designed to take 15-20 minutes and only use the best piece of
workout equipment: Your Body.
Perform the following exercises in circuit format completing one exercise after another with minimal rest. Follow the work-to-rest ratios as closely as possible. The first number is the amount of seconds you will exercise. The second number is the rest time. Therefore a 30/15 represents 30 seconds of work followed by 15 seconds of rest. During the rest time you will prepare for the next exercise. Perform as many rounds as possible in 15-20 minutes. Each time the workout is completed, the work-to-rest ratio changes slightly to increase results. Be sure to make a note of the changes.
