Our boring Gym routine is not what’s on our minds as we approach Christmas and end of years holidays. Most of us are too focused on barbecues, family get togethers and doing the Christmas shopping.
But it’s essential to keep your fitness regime on track and get your heat rate pumping. HIIT circuit exercises are a fun and quick way to get an amazing workout and with the right exercises these can be done anywhere.
