Are you trying to figure out how to squeeze in your workout during the holiday rush? On those really hectic days, just try to incorporate activity into your daily routine. Here are some healthy holiday tips:
Park your car farther away from your destination. If you are going to a few stores in the same area, park in a central location and just walk everywhere. This will not only give you a little cardio, but will save fuel and other parking lot chaos. Even better, the more you buy, the more weight resistance you will have.
Replace coffee breaks with fitness breaks.
If you are going to be watching TV, make that time more useful and exercise during your shows.
Always keep walking or running shoes on hand (car, office, etc). This way you will be ready when an activity comes up.
Start new traditions – instead of meeting your friends for cookies and cakes, meet them for an activity, like a local 5k, a winter hike, or a toasty indoor fitness class.
