Should I keep training during the holidays?

Josh 0:16
What's going on guys? Hello and welcome to a brand new episode of No BS Fitness. I am Josh, he is Jesse. You can find me on Instagram at JackedFTS. You can find Jesse on Instagram at Thrive Performance Fitness. And of course you can find the podcast there at No BS Fitness Podcast. Rockin' around the Christmas tree. Why aren't you rocking?
Jesse 0:41
You're just standing there. I don't know the words. Come on, man. We weren't allowed to sing Christmas music as children. Why not? It was unbecoming. Did Mama LaRue not allow it? No, no. Purely just church hymns. That was it. Church hymns and no Tylenol. No Tylenol.
Josh 0:57
Or too much Tylenol. I don't know yet. All right. Christmas is... Almost here. Almost here. A couple days away, technically. As we drop this on Sunday. Are you ready?
Jesse 1:14
I'm about as ready as I am most Christmases by this time.
Josh 1:18
So you're going to be after work on Wednesday. You're going to be running out to the stores.
Jesse 1:26
Getting a whole whack of gift cards.
Josh 1:28
Wow, you're one of those guys, eh?
Jesse 1:30
Not much thought. It's not that it's not much thought. It's just like, I find that like one point it becomes, you just like have to get stuff for the sake of getting stuff. And then you're trying to wrap your brain around like, you know, what is this one gift? Like I, yeah. I mean, we've toned it down quite a bit over the years, which I kind of like. Um, Yeah. Yeah. Honestly, man. Like I have a couple of things I should say. I have a couple of things that like that I need to get stuff for people that have like said something. And I just like picked up one. I'm like, OK, perfect. I was like that I can get. But there will there will likely be some gift card action. Yeah.

How can I combat overeating during the holidays?

Josh 2:06
Honestly, like I just it sounds super corny, but the older I've gotten and like my dad says it right, like. Anything we need, we have. And anything I want, I can't afford. I want a brand new Toyota Tacoma, but I don't have $80,000 to spend on a brand new truck. So the good old Honda CR-V has got to do me well. But honestly, I'm not a big good at receiving gifts. I don't really like it. Christmas has become like... So commercial, man. Well, yeah, I mean, I don't want to be that guy, but I much prefer sitting around and having a drink and dinner or snacks with friends and family than I do with, yeah, come on.
Jesse 2:53
I see you rolling your eyes across the table.
Josh 2:56
That's fine. That's great. But it's the truth. I just, it's, I don't, I don't need any, I don't really frigging want anything, right? I just want, I'd much rather spend time with my friends and the family that I want to spend time with.
Jesse 3:07
Yeah.
Josh 3:08
Not the family that I don't want to spend time with. They can go get bent. I think we're going to have the hap, hap, happiest Christmas this year though. I really do.
Jesse 3:20
Okay. That's, that's, that's, I seem excited about that one.
Josh 3:23
I am. I think I'm most excited about just a couple of days off, like just doing nothing. Yeah. Um, which really won't be nothing, but I'm also incredibly pumped for how sick I'm going to get.
Jesse 3:35
Yeah.
Josh 3:36
Like I'm just waiting. I'm just waiting. Without fail, Jesse, and I know you're the same. This goes back to when I was in sales, like every single year, Christmas week was a nightmare. Your sales would be like 25%, 30% higher than any other week. And it's just like, head down, go to work. You do a half day on Christmas Eve, you come home, you have that first adult beverage, and it's like, why is my throat scratchy? Oh, no, why is my nose stuffy? You wake up Christmas morning sick as a freaking dog. And it's just like, without fail, it happens. And I'm like, we've been... Again, I don't want to say we're the hardest workers in the world, but we've got pretty busy schedules, and... We're cramming everybody in.
Josh 4:27
We're working the weekend before Christmas. We're working right up until Christmas. We're going to be going. And the stress is kind of sort of a bit high. Yeah. So I know when I sit down Christmas Eve with my wife to have a drink. Yeah. I can feel the sore throat already. I'm like, here it comes.

What are some fitness gift ideas under $100?

Josh 4:48
I'm waiting for you. But I've prepped this year. I've got all kinds of orange juice.
