- 1:13Speaker 1: This one is designed to suck a little bit, all right.
- 1:17Speaker 1: So let me explain how this is gonna work out.
- 1:20Speaker 1: You know the song the 12 days of Christmas.
- 1:23Speaker 1: You're going to do the exercises along with the song.
- 1:28Speaker 1: So, for example, on the first day of Christmas, my true love gave to me one jumping jack and you're gonna execute the jumping jack, and then you're going to do the next frame of the song, which is on the second day of Christmas, my coach gave to me two pushups, one jumping jack, and you're gonna execute the two pushups, the one jumping jack and you're gonna go work your way all the way up to 12.
- 1:56Speaker 1: And then that's it, all right.
- 1:58Speaker 1: So the repetitions or the exercises, the individual exercises, are the first day is going to be a jumping jack.
- 2:09Speaker 1: Second day pushups.
- 2:11Speaker 1: Day three lunges each side Four.
- 2:17Speaker 1: Day four is 20 flutter kicks.
- 2:19Speaker 1: Day five five burpees, all right.
- 2:23Speaker 1: Then day six is mountain climbers seven VE ups, eight air squats, nine high knees, 10 tricep dips, 11 high knees.
- 2:31Speaker 1: And then day 12, you're gonna hold the plank.
- 2:34Speaker 1: You're gonna hold it as long as you can, for at least a minute.
- 2:36Speaker 1: That's minimum, but I want you to hold it as long as you can, and that is your routine.
- 2:42Speaker 1: All right?
- 2:43Speaker 1: For those that are level two, that wanna make this tougher, okay, then you're basically gonna do a pyramid.
- 2:49Speaker 1: You're gonna work your way the opposite way.
- 2:51Speaker 1: So you've come up and then now you're gonna work your way back up.
- 2:54Speaker 1: Does that make sense?
- 2:55Speaker 1: Just like a pyramid?
- 2:57Speaker 1: All right, so that's how you can make it harder.
- 2:59Speaker 1: All right, so perform the routine.
- 3:01Speaker 1: You're gonna share your favorite exercise, use the hashtag 12 days of fitness, dht and let us know which one hurt the worst.
- 3:11Speaker 1: All right, so you're gonna feel the burn, and this routine is about using your body weight to target major muscle groups to build strength and endurance.
- 3:19Speaker 1: This will help you with your running, and this one's designed to hurt.
- 3:22Speaker 1: We're amping it up a little bit today.
- 3:24Speaker 1: So yeah, that's about it.
- 3:28Speaker 1: What else do I wanna add to this?
- 3:29Speaker 1: So this is an opportunity to embrace it and improve your physical and mental strength.
- 3:37Speaker 1: And now, what I want you to think about as you're going through this, not only are you challenging your body, but it's an opportunity to challenge your mindset.
- 3:46Speaker 1: All right, you're on day 10 of 12, and I just wanna honor you for sticking through it all the way through up until this point.
- 3:54Speaker 1: And you're not just exercising the body, you're also tapping into that strength inside of you, and it's an opportunity to strengthen the mindset.
- 4:04Speaker 1: So, with every single exercise that you do, especially as you go up and it starts to get tough, I want you to think about just forging ahead.
- 4:13Speaker 1: It's not about physical toughness, but also mental toughness and grit.
- 4:16Speaker 1: And when it gets hard, when you want to quit, that is where you actually get better.
- 4:24Speaker 1: All right, and I want you to power through.
- 4:29Speaker 1: And when it gets tough, I want you to continue on, and I just want you to finish what you started and remember why you're doing this in the first place, Because when it gets tough, we wanna quit.
- 4:41Speaker 1: That's what enables us to get through is remembering why we started and realizing that you can.
- 4:47Speaker 1: You do actually have the mental fortitude to see it through.
- 4:50Speaker 1: Now.
- 4:50Speaker 1: We don't want you to get hurt, so modify as you need to, but I want you just to push through all the way and you might cuss me, you might use my name in vain and that's all good, but at the end of this, you know that you're gonna be better.
- 5:00Speaker 1: So it's not just about your physical strength, it's about your mental strength as well.
- 5:05Speaker 1: So this is it all right.
- 5:07Speaker 1: So this is day 10 of 12.
- 5:10Speaker 1: It's designed to hurt a little bit.
- 5:12Speaker 1: You got this.
- 5:13Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to seeing the photos with the hashtag and that's it.
