Monday Workout: 12 days

It’s time.  We need to do the infamous 12 days of Christmas workout.  Here’s how it works.  On “day one” we do one push press.  We rest if needed (ha!) and then proceed to “day two, “ on which we do two goblet squats and one push press.  We continue on, trying to take our rests between “days.”  Eventually, we reach the twelfth day and we do twelve plyojacks, eleven kettlebell swings, ten jump lunges, nine mountain climbers, eight renegade rows, seven pushups, six burpees, five deadlifts, four one-leg squats on each leg, three overhead presses, two goblet squats, and one push press.  At the end, we may decide it is time to get a new true love.  The good news is that we only go through the twelve days one time.  As always, feel free to substitute exercises that better suit your body’s needs—plain lunges are fine if you don’t want to jump, woodchoppers make a good swap for plyojacks, etc.  And yes, I do know that at the end of the workout we will have done 42 burpees.  Merry Christmas.
