Welcome to your 12 days challenge!!! But the best part about it is that three days are rest days so you’ve already completed a quarter of the challenge!!! 
It goes abs arms legs rest repeat!!! (But higher numbers)
I hope you’re having an amazing holiday season!!!

On the first day of Christmas I worked on my abs!!!
But like for reals you got this, everyday till Christmas do each workout so you have the gift of a more fit you!

As usual, belly button pushing down through your spine. Pointed toes, rounded back, like you’re trying to pinch the front of your shoulders together. Make sure to breathe!

Tuck hollow hold

There are two versions shown here, one has your shoulders off the ground, (harder) the other has you lie flat (modified). Do whichever one you can for the duration.
Engage your core and feel the movement of your leg initiating from the engagement of your core pushing your lower back into the ground!

Lay flat hand to knee

Push your heels away from you, shove your belly button down towards the floor and flutter! One kick each side counts as one!

Flexed feet leg kicks

Pushing the ground away from you, keep your shoulders, core, and everything else engaged. Do your best to keep your butt tucked under, and your head neutral! Make sure to breath the whole time as well!

Plank hold elbows

1st day of Christmas!

On the second day of Christmas I worked arms!!!

With your legs bent for assistance, place your hands on a stable chair or low table. Once your hands are stable, engage your glutes and core and straighten your legs! Keeping your shoulders down away from your ears, bend your arms until you feel a slight stretch in the shoulders then push back up!

Straight leg chair dips

Y’all already know push-ups!!! Keep your core as tight as possible, index finger tips parallel, down and up!

Push-ups! (Modify if you need)

These are a foreign exercise to many but don’t fret you’ve got this. Keeping your arms locked and elbow pits forward, shrug your shoulders by pushing and releasing the pressure your hands have on the ground. Your shoulder blades will glide together and then apart and you’re doing it!

Scapular pushups

Pushing the ground away from you, keep your shoulders, core, and everything else engaged. Do your best to keep your butt tucked under, and your head neutral! 
Then take opposite hand to opposite knee, and return to the starting position and switch sides! Make sure to breathe the whole time as well!

Plank knee touches

2nd day of Christmas!

On the third day of Christmas I worked legs!!!

The last exercise for your morning challenge!!! Keep your knees over your second toe when you squat, chest up, core tight. Bend until your thighs are parallel to the ground!

Air squat!

This is essential for stabilizing the core, which is a huge part of balancing a handstand.
Have pressure in your toes, and lift from your core, all while keeping your flutes tight and tailbone tucked under.

Glute bridge

Be sure not to let your back knee hit the floor with any force. It should be a gentle touch :) try your best to keep from wobbling, and the trick to that is… you guessed it, tight core :)
One step each side counts as 1!

Squat step backs!

3rd day of Christmas!!!

Rest day, but seriously are we even allowed to park here ever?

Rest day

On the fifth day of Christmas I worked on my abs!!! (But more than day 1)
