No slacking at Christmas! Ben Stiller keeps active over the festive period with a spot of tennis, cycling AND paddle boarding

For the majority of people, the festive period brings with it the excuse of doing absolutely nothing and eating a lot.
But one person determined not to slack over Christmas was Ben Stiller, who was seen keeping active by any means possible during his holiday in Hawaii.
The 48-year-old actor was seen working up a sweat with various activities including tennis, cycling and paddle boarding on the family break.

Clearly determined not to gain a pound by indulging in any festive feasts, Ben pushed himself to set his pulse racing with the various physically demanding exercises.
Ben kicked things off by playing a game of tennis, looking deep in concentration as he focused on his swing.
The father-of-two was then seen grimacing in pain as he embarked on a cycle ride, with a mixture of mud and sweat seen spattered over his T-shirt and shorts.

However, later on Ben proved that he has nothing to worry about as he displayed his muscular physique in a tight-fitting blue T-shirt and floral board shorts as he stood confidently atop his board.
Ben was on the holiday with his wife Christine Taylor, 42, and their two children, daughter Ella, 11, and son Quinlin Dempsey, eight.
The Secret Life Of Walter Mitty star recently revealed his family celebrate both Christmas and Jewish holiday Hanukkah together on the break.

Ben - whose father, Jerry Stiller, is from a Jewish family, while his mother Anne Meara's background is Irish Catholic - said: 'We have a place in Hawaii we like to go for Christmas. That's where we go with the kids and we hang out, have presents.
'This is an important time of year and when I was growing up, Christmas with all the toys was so exciting.
'I always want my kids to have a great Christmas, that's the most important thing.'
