For the past couple of years my gym has run a 12 days of fitness challenge and I've posted here for all to join in. You can start this whenever you see it. The basic idea is on the first day of Fitness you do the first challenge. On the second day you do the second challenge AND the first challenge, on the third day you do ... well, pretty much like the 12 days of Christmas song that you know from Bob and Doug McKenzie of Second City TV fame.
And ... we are off!
On the first day of Christmas @Baltoscott gave to me one minute of push-ups. (If you can't do regular push-ups, try doing incline push-ups (push-up from a table) or use risers as show in this video).

@Baltoscott @WendyB Thank you! I'm gonna try to push it out my system as fast as I can. I'll still try to do some of these just to try to keep up to y'all. 😋 Wall-sits don't have my sinuses flipped around.

@WendyB you are doing great finding alternatives when needed; maybe instead of the standing long jumps you can do lunge twists for both the day 10 and day 11 exercise.
