Kick off the holiday season with a joyful and challenging countdown workout program that builds up to Christmas!
One of the things I and my kids look forward to each year is the advent calendar. So I decided to make a fitness version of a Christmas countdown. I had so much fun making the countdown that I made 2 of them this is the Green version.
Each day you get to look forward to a new exercise and a mini-workout.
The workout could be used as your warm-up, finisher, or even your main workout if you are short on time for that day.
Minimal equipment needed. Most exercises use just your body weight or kettlebells. You could use dumbbells if you don't have any kettlebells.
Make this December about feeling strong, having fun, and building holiday cheer. Whether you're counting down the days to Christmas, staying consistent, or just looking to shake up your routine, this Christmas countdown will keep you moving and merry!
