According to the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) people actually accumulate a large proportion of their yearly weight gain over the winter holiday season. I am sure we can come up with many reasons/excuses (all of which I have used myself). The most common complaint I hear is that there just isn’t enough time during the busy season to get to the gym. I agree, but you don’t have to go to the gym to workout. You don’t even need equipment. Here are a few of my favorite no gym, no equipment workouts to help you fight the winter weight gain. Pick one and get going.
~ Run 1 mile stopping to lunge 30 steps every 60 seconds.
~ Perform 20 rounds of 5 Push Ups, 5 Squats, and 5 Sit-Ups
~ 10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 Burpies and Plank Lifts
~ Perform 10 rounds of: 30 seconds of mountain climbers and a 30 second hold at the bottom of a squat.
