2018 Advent Fitness Challenge: Let's Keep Moving Through This Crazy Time of the Year! Fitness
As we approach the busiest time of year, don't forget to keep moving! When life gets in the way, it's so easy to forget to take care of ourselves. Join the "Doctor Strive to Thrive" Advent Challenge and download the graphic (password: 30 Seconds) to keep (a little) focus on your own wellness!
This challenge is geared toward beginners, but anyone can do it by bumping it up or down to meet your own needs. The challenge starts December 2, so get ready! We will alternate a little cardio on odd number days between all the strength moves except at the end – we'll end with cardio.
