The holiday season is the biggest self-sabotage season – there are gatherings, drinks, treats, barbecues, all those things that seduce us into betraying our health and fitness goals. But what if you could trust yourself to enjoy these occasions without feeling ashamed or stressed about betraying your health goals? What if you could spend quality time with your family without worrying about food or self-sabotage?
Christina shares some holiday fitness hacks to help you stay on track during December so you can make memories and enjoy the holidays without feeling restricted or guilty.

Memorable Quotes:
“You can’t expect to achieve the outcome without going through the process and laying the foundation, setting the stage, working on your mind, and getting your strategy in place – knowing what you need to eat and how to train.”
“There’s never a perfect time to start anything. We often wait for January, thinking we’ll have more time, but there’s always something — kids, schedules, work, illness, unexpected events.”
“When you start physically feeling better, you start feeling better in every aspect.”
