Steph’s top workouts to fit around your festivities and help you stay active this Christmas
During the festive season our lives get incredibly busy and if you’re anything like me, you fall out of routine and find it tricky to make time for movement.
However, I know that when I do squeeze in a quick workout, my body and mind are ALWAYS better off for it. In fact, when I make time for movement I’m actually better able to tackle the stress that comes with Christmas time.
The KIC team and I are totally aware of how tricky it can be to keep moving throughout the festive season and so if you haven’t already heard, we’ve released BRAND NEW KIC Minis! The team and I dropped these to help you keep motivated and moving even when your life is at its busiest.
If you’re not across what KIC Minis are, they’re 5-10 minute workouts designed to fit into your day, help you release stress and boost your energy. If you’re wondering about the power of 5 minutes, I encourage you to read this – I think you’ll be surprised to find out just how much you can benefit your mind and body in only 5 minutes.
Alongside KIC Minis, I also find that I gravitate towards the equipment free workouts during this time. It means I don’t need to think about anything else but putting on my active wear and hitting play on the Masterclass.
Below I’ve shared my favourite KIC Minis and equipment free workouts from the KIC app to help guide and inspire your movement during this crazy time of year.
1. Advanced Booty Burner with Brooke - NEW 10 minute KIC Mini
This 10 rep AMRAP is sure to burn your glutes, combining deadlifts, skaters, forward lunges, squats and glute bridges for the ultimate glute challenge. Grab some heavy dumbbells and smash this advanced booty burner.
2. Beginner Ab Burner with Kika - NEW 10 minute KIC Mini
Let’s get those abs working! Time to smash out crunch sequences, leg lifts and lowers and lower ab stabilising exercises to get that full core workout.
3. Squat Session with Leo - NEW 5 minute KIC Mini
Get ready to smash out this squat challenge! You’ll smash out full squats, half way squat holds and speed squats to get those legs firing!
4. Cheeky Glutes with Brooke - 20 minute Equipment Free Masterclass
This equipment free lower body focused session will leave your glutes feeling amazing and your heart rate high. Taking the time to work the booty is also going to help strengthen you legs and glute muscles which will support you in both your running and walking.
5. Abs and Glutes HIIT Sesh with Danny - 20 minute Equipment Free Masterclass
You’ll workout alongside Laura in this session. Between the fast squats, sprinter sit ups and heel taps, this workout promises to get your endorphins pumping.
I hope that no matter how you build KIC workouts (whether it be a KIC Mini or a Masterclass) into your routine this festive season, that they help you feel energised, fit and full of endorphins.
Remember that regardless of how or when you fit movement into your day, you should be so proud of yourself for prioritising YOU.
