12 Exercises of Christmas - Home Workout
Inspired by the song '12 Days of Christmas' I've written this workout so that people could do it at home over the festive season after sitting around too much and over indulging. There's 12 rounds that get increasingly more difficult as a new exercise is added on each time. Let me know how you get on!
The video demonstrates the exercises and the variations depending on your level of fitness. The details of the workout are written below.
