THE 3-DAY THANKSGIVING WEEKEND WORKOUT PLAN

After enjoying a delicious Thanksgiving meal you may want to get back to your exercise routine.  Here is a 3-day weekend Thanksgiving workout plan from Muscle & Fitness to get you back on track.

FRIDAY

This day consists primarily of bodyweight exercises done in supersets. You’ll need less than an hour for this fast-paced workout, which will leave you feeling like you have more energy coming out than going in.

For most exercises, go 12 to 15 reps, trying to finish each superset in under a minute. For pushups, pullups, and dips, perform as many reps as possible. Do each superset twice, resting only after the second exercise; if you’re feeling ambitious, you may do each superset three times.

SATURDAY

This will be a hard-and-heavy weight-training session. Blauner says this workout, which focuses on big, powerful motions, will hit every major muscle group in the body.

The goal of this workout is to maximize fatigue, which will lead the body to absorb extra protein, while the sustained elevated metabolism will help burn calories for longer. Once again, your workout will be performed superset-style, 8–12 reps per set. Afterward, indulge and enjoy, knowing that your body is making good use of all those calories.

SUNDAY

This workout will be less intense than the previous two, leaving you with plenty of energy for going back to work. (You’re welcome.)

Your challenge: Go for a run or hike in the park. If necessary, use a treadmill. Keep a pace of no less than 4mph. For each mile you complete, do two 100-yard all-out sprints (six sprints total). After the workout, you’ll do some basic calisthenics, and stretches of your choice.

The workout should take about an hour, leaving you plenty of time to rest and mentally prepare going back to work.
