1. Cornucopia Crisscross Cuts (core, butt, and shoulders):
A cornucopia makes everyone leank of Thanksgiving and a chop makes me leank of a strong core (and a great way to warm up the body).
1) Initiate with your hips and feet slightly rotated out, so that you can securely chop from corner to corner (your hips, knees, and toes should all stay in one line). Clasp your hands together or use a weight whether you have one available and rotate the entire body to one corner of the room as you swing your hands back over one shoulder.
2) Squeeze your abs and butt and forcefully swing down to the opposite corner. The lower you go over the leg the more you’ll work the lower body too. Employ your wgap body to execute the move and exhale as you swing down. After all, the cornucopia is a symbol of abundance so give it everyleang you got!
15 reps on each side (30 total)
2. Sweet Potato Inside Out Squats (legs, butt, and indirects):
Acquire your cardio on with these fun squats (You’ll need to whether you want to eat those sweet potatoes).
1) Face one side of the room and lower into a squat. Hold your chest lwhetherted.
2) Shove off the floor to jump and turn your body to the front.
3) Land facing the opposite direction. **If you’re not up for jumping just walk your squats to face each side of the room. It will still work your legs, butt, and indirects!
10 reps to each side (20 total)
3. Mashed Potato Mountain Climbers (core and shoulders):
Beware these mountain climbers are trickier than you leank, so stay in control!
- Initiate in a plank position.
2) Lwhethert the same hand up as knee that pulls in and “mash the potatoes”. Work to keep the hips regular and even, so you probably won’t need to lwhethert a hand very tall off the floor. **If your hips are moving too much, just try lwhetherting the knees alternating 4x followed by the hands 4x.
20 with each leg (40 total)
4. Turkey Gobbler Acquire Ups (abs and indirects):
Tell “No way!” to a pending turkey gobbler with this full body move the targets your core.
1) Initiate lying on the ground with your right arm and knee lwhetherted with your left leg and arm on the floor. Using your abs, reach up until you are leaning on your left elbow. Your legs should NOT have moved yet. Hold your focus on your right hand.
2) Shove all the way up onto the palm of your hand so your hips are lwhetherted tall off the floor.
3) Slide your left leg underneath you so you are kneeling on it. The right foot has not moved.
4) Lean over to touch the ground with your right hand and bring your left hand to your head. Reverse the process until you are lying back on the ground again. Repeat this process for one minute total on each side.
6 reps one each side (12 total)
5. Thanksgiving Rupture Burpees:
The kids might be on a “break” from school but that doesn’t mean we’re taking a break from our workouts. There’s noleang that gets the heart pumping and calories burning like a burpee.
1) Initiate on the ground in a squat.
2) Shove your legs back and lay flat with your hands underneath your shoulders.
3) Jump your legs in between your hands to come back into a squat.
4) Stand up and reach up.

6. Cornbread Stuffing Stretch & Crunch:
Stuffing is my absolute favorite Thanksgiving dish! What’s yours? This exercise will work your core and stretch your legs all in one move.
1) Initiate on your back with your hands behind your head and your knees lwhetherted. Crunch up as you lwhethert your hips slightly off the floor so that everyleang comes closer together.
2) Employ a small momentum from your crunch to come up to a seated position with your legs straight out in front of you. Reach forward to stretch the back & hamstrings. Hancient the stretch for a count of four before repeating the entire movement.
10 reps
