Dash to the Finish Challenge: End the Year Strong with iFIT

This Sunday marks the 91st Academy Awards Ceremony! For some of you Oscars-viewing veterans, you probably have a long-standing viewing party tradition where you share snacks, drinks, and games with your closest friends and family. If you’re like me, the Oscars are an excuse to share loud opinions with your friends. Whether you’re a seasoned professional or new to the party, we’re setting the charcuterie and cheese boards aside for a little friendly fitness competition! Welcome to the 2019 #oscarsworkout challenge. If you’re really feeling up for it, turn your living room into a home gym by pushing your couches and coffee tables aside. If you’re not ready to go all out, just make sure you’re arms length apart from those around you—just to avoid any incidents. While your favorite stars are meeting their fate, you’ll be working your arms, legs, and core. So no matter what happens on screen, it’s a win-win for you! Here’s how you play: Don't forget to tag @iFit in your posts and stories using the hashtag #oscarsworkout for a chance to be featured! Or tell us your best #oscarsworkout story in the comments below! Let the games begin...
