How to stay fit during the holiday season feeding frenzy? Hit those weights, people.

Here's Sports Illustrated/Game of War supermodel/Justin Verlander's girlfriend Kate Upton performing some kind of modified barbell deadlift/squat. And there's an impressive amount of weight on that bar -- it looks to my eye roughly 100 pounds plus the 45-pound bar or maybe even 180 plus the bar.

Props to Kate's dog Harley, a male boxer and spotter who is also one of "Bruno's Bitches," meaning Upton must work with personal trainer Ben Bruno.

Merry Liftmas!
