the 12 workouts of christmas

For those of you who love a good challenge as much as you love Christmas, we present to you: the 12 workouts of Christmas. Just like the classic Christmas carol, your trainers at Longevity are giving you a new 'gift' each day - except these gifts come in the form of... exercise. This challenge begins on Friday, December 11 and ends on Tuesday, December 22. By the twelfth day, you will have a full HIIT workout to completely crush. (Not to mention amazing strength and endurance!)
