Thanksgiving workout tips

It is really hard to keep your weight in check with holidays like thanksgiving where there is a lot of food, a lot of fatty food for that matter. And then there is the long distance traveling to spend it with family, which can be very stressful and can lead to stress eating. You have to cut down on your workout time cause there is just not enough space for it during the holiday. You can’t avoid it but you can reverse the effects with some intense workout. You’ll have to workout at least five times a week, do more reps and sets but it can be done.
