It seems that the months of November and December whiz by and the holidays, while festive, wreak havoc on our normal routines. Making time for everything can be a challenge but experts say that is important to make sure you set an appointment with yourself every day for physical activity – even if it’s just a minimal amount.

Squeezing in a little activity is better than none, say experts. If you can’t find time to hit the gym, don’t skip exercising altogether. A quick workout is better than no workout. Try to incorporate even just 10 minutes of physical activity a day. High-intensity interval training is a great way to get in a quick and effective workout. High-intensity interval training (HIIT) describes a workout that alternates between intense bursts of activity and fixed periods of less-intense activity or short-term rest.
