It’s that magical time of year when there’s so much amazing festive food all around us
So just for a bit of festive fun, here’s what might be popping up on the Christmas plate — and roughly how many extra minutes of walking it could take to burn it off.
🎄Mince pie 45mins
🎄Gingerbread man 30mins
🎄Candy cane 15mins
🎄White Christmas slice 40mins

The important thing to remember
This isn’t about “earning” food — it’s simply a reminder that every bit of movement counts.
A gentle exercise session, a walk, or one of our sessions can all help us stay active and healthy
So our recommendation is simple 👇
✔️ Enjoy the treats
✔️ Keep moving
✔️ Enjoy Christmas :)
