12 Days of Christmas circuit challenge
On the first day of Christmas, my true love gave to me…a totally healthy body! Start your new year off right by being in tip-top shape. Not only will ya feel better—we’re talking sleeping better, eating better and doing better in school—but you’ll have tons of confidence, too. Talk about a gift worth giving to Y-O-U!

2 sets of 10 bicep curls with each arm
3 minutes of jumping rope without bouncing on your toes
4 sprints. Pick a spot about 100 feet away, dash down, dash back and repeat.
5 burpees. Squat down on the ground and then jump up. When you come back down, land lightly in your squat. Pause for a breath, then repeat.
