Santa may be a good guide for being jolly and generous, but he is not the best example for physical health.

Over the past few centuries, Santa’s overindulgence in milk and cookies has led to something many Americans are familiar with: morbid obesity.

For this reason, you should avoid sweets this holiday season and regularly perform one or more of these holiday-themed workouts!

Deck the Medicine Balls
You’ll need a medicine ball and a pull-up bar for this workout.

As quickly as possible, perform 30 explosive wall balls followed by 10 toes to bar (bonus points if you keep the ball between your feet during the toes to bar). Complete 5 rounds for time.

Jingle Bell Weighted Walk
Got a weight vest? Great! That will work perfectly for this workout. If not, find something heavy (anything heavy) lying around the house and use that!

Map out a mile and go for a weighted walk as fast as you can. If it’s too easy, increase the weight and quicken your pace. Too hard? Lessen the distance and/or decrease the weight.

Run, Run, Rudolph!
It might be cold in your town during the holidays, but that’s what sweatshirts and hats were made for!

This workout will consist of sprints on two feet and sprints using all four limbs, just like a reindeer.

Determine a flat distance of about 50 feet and sprint in one direction, bear crawl back for as many rounds as possible in 15 minutes.

Silver Kettlebells
Grab a kettlebell (or dumbbell) for this workout, and get ready to rock!

Perform 20 goblet squats, 15 two-hand kettlebell swings, 10 one-hand swings on each arm, and 5 kettlebell snatches on each arm for as many rounds as possible in 12 minutes.

Candy Cane Gainz
For this workout, the barbell will serve as your “candy cane.” If you don’t have a barbell, make it work with some dumbbells or even just some pushups.

Load the bar up with a weight with which you can comfortably perform 10 reps. Set a timer for 10 minutes and, every minute, on minute, complete 5 reps of bench press and 10 squats.

Blitzen’s Biceps Blaster
This workout will require some dumbbells and a pull-up bar. Blitzen’s Bicep Blaster will give you an incredible bicep pump and may leave you aching for a few days after the fact!

Perform 10 alternating biceps curls, immediately followed by 10 pull-ups. Then complete 10 hammer curls, followed by 10 chin-ups. This is one round; attempt to complete 5 rounds or as many as you can in 10 minutes.

Frosty the Swoleman 
Snowmen have a unique shape: they go from very wide at the bottom to very narrow at the top. The snowman’s shape is the basis for this pyramidal workout.

Perform 10 pushups, and take a 30-second break. Then perform 12 pushups, and take a 30-second break. Continue in this pattern, adding 2 pushups each time until you reach 20, then go back down the pyramid.
