For Christmas, we’re doing a workout game. The only equipment required is a deck of cards, although it is handy to have an exercise ball or a yoga block for the pretty princesses and those of you who want to make things harder on yourselves may want some light weights to hold for the squats and punches.
This game can be played alone or with a friend.
One turn involves turning over a card and doing the exercise that matches the suit (see chart below) the number of times that is on the card. So, for example, turning over the three of clubs would mean doing three pretty princesses. Face cards can either be counted as ten, or jacks can be 11, queens 12, and kings 13.
Continue as long as time and energy allow!
(This is a good way to wear out any kids you happen to have lying around!)
