Getting down to the wire on this holiday business so don't waste time! When exercising, stay focused and move quickly through the workout. Take fewer, shorter rests between sets to burn more calories and maintain concentration on your training. Super sets and intervals will do you right.
A 30 minute session will make you feel great! Just stay calm and carry on.

Fit Tip
I've got a delicious recipe that's quick, healthy, and absolutely "party worthy." Make up a batch of this to serve with whole grain bread for a satisfying dinner or serve small portions as a smart starter.
2 tsp olive oil
1/2 medium onion, chopped
3 cups no-salt added vegetable broth or stock
1 bunch, fresh, raw asparagus, trimmed, chopped into 2 inch pieces (about 3 cups)
Asparagus is an excellent source of potassium, vitamin K, folic acid, vitamins C and A, riboflavin,
thiamine, and vitamin B6. The anti-inflammatory properties will booster you through all the holiday stress, shopping and working out!

Yep, it's a Fit Tip
Some tips just can't be repeated enough!
Stress is already knocking on my door and I'm finding it difficult to stay focused and on task. Anyone?
Stop. Breathe. Relax.
Take a minute to plan how the next month is going to look for you and be sure and write it down.
Prioritize.
Don't hesitate to put yourself first.
Create one goal for the month. Mine is to NOT GAIN WEIGHT. Feel free to copy that.
Eat a variety of colors daily.
Sleep at least seven hours nightly.
Exercise daily-at least five minutes, four times a day if you can't fit in a full session.
Yes! That is 7 days a week, every week!
The most important tip I can off is to give yourself a break if things don't go perfectly. Tomorrow will be here soon enough and you can try it all over again.
