Christmas Day is here! A day to relax, eat a ton of great food, open presents and connect with family. Today can certainly be busy, with the cooking, and cleaning, and entertaining, or travelling; I know what you’re thinking, though, “When will I have time to workout?” Here is a great Christmas Day workout that will get your heart pumping, you body sweating, and your whole self ready for enjoying that decadent Christmas dinner! The best part, it will be done in 30 minutes and can be done at home while your ham and pies are baking in the oven. Have a very Merry Christmas/final day of Hannukah/ Holiday season, everyone!
