Santas get fit before Christmas!

Christmas is upon us and Santa has to travel millions of miles giving out gifts, slide down chimneys and will inevitably eat a lot of cookies on Christmas day and in preparation for that he has been hitting the gym!

Santas at The Ministry of Fun's Santa School — a training school for professional Santas — sweated it out at a special boot camp at the David Lloyd Club in Newbury, England, reports Mashable.

Not only are they doing some water aerobics, Santas are also lifting weights in preparation of all the heavy lifting they will have to do on Christmas Eve.
