So, you're out of town for Thanksgiving?
That’s NO reason to get set back on your path towards a healthier you! We all know it's hard enough to find time to exercise with our regular daily schedules, but finding time to fit a gym session in while visiting the in-laws is just near impossible.
So, what can you do to squeeze in a workout? Well, let’s forget the machines and dumbbells for a day and get back to basics!
There is nothing like a good morning jog to get the metabolism started before a day filled of turkey and stuffing. If indoors is your only option, then let’s start with:
- Jumping jacks to get that heart rate up,
- Followed by 10 pushups,
- A plank hold for 60 seconds,
- 20 body weight lunges,
- 10 burpees (see image on the right),
- 10 body weight squats,
- and 40 mountain climbers
Repeat as needed and you won’t be feeling as guilty when you put that favorite Thanksgiving dish of yours on your plate!
