Stay Active Through the Holidays With the iFIT App!

READ TIME:3 min.

The holiday season is quickly approaching, which may bring potential hiccups to the fitness routine you’ve created over the past year. Maybe you’re traveling to see family and friends or hosting a special gathering in your home this year. However the holiday season looks for your family, it’s a joyous time filled with priceless memories (and delicious food!).

If you’re wondering how you’ll keep active amidst time spent with family and friends, you’re not alone. With all the festivities and business of the season, your fitness routine may have been set aside in the past. Luckily, it’s easy to keep your body moving while enjoying all that the holidays have to offer! Here are a few quick tips to help you stay active:

  • Block out time for daily movement, even if that means a short 10 to 20-minute walking workout. At the end of the day, moving your body is the goal!
  • Wake up before the rest of your family to hop into a stretching session, yoga workout, or strength workout. Night owl? Stay up a little later after everyone goes to sleep!
  • Snowing outside? Make winter weather a part of an outdoor workout: trek into the snow for a walk with family or have a fun snowball fight with the kids!

If you plan on being away from home over the holidays, don’t fret about leaving your iFIT-enabled equipment. With the iFIT fitness app, you can take your favorite iFIT Trainers with you (don’t worry, they travel light). If you’ll be staying with someone who owns similar equipment or close to a local gym, you can access the entire iFIT Library from the app, including our holiday and winter workout series. You’ll simply select the workout you’d like to do and then choose to go unpaired.

No equipment? No problem! The iFIT TV app allows you to hop into a great workout with no equipment needed. Now enhanced with closed captioning and music stations, our TV app allows you to customize your workout experience however you’d like!

Here are a few workout series to help you knock out your daily exercise while training away from home. Best of all, they’ll help you get into that holiday spirit!
