Fitness Tips - Exercise While Traveling

How do you stay fit while on the road? Lots of people travel for work, or even vacation regularly. The best way to get your workouts in on the road is to stay at a hotel that has a workout room. (Even better is when you actually use it!) If there is no workout room, it is possible to do a full body workout in your own hotel room. Here is what it looks like:

Push ups: 3 sets x 10-15 reps

Floor crunches: 3 sets x 20 reps

Body weight squats: 3 sets x 20 reps (or jump squats for increased intensity)

Body weight lunges: 3 sets x 15-20 reps (or jump lunges for increased intensity)

Superman back extensions: 10 reps with 5 seconds rest

Planks: for 1 min. x 3 sets

You can do this with minimal rest, in a circuit fashion, one exercise after the other, or you can do each exercise 3 sets at a time with one minute rest in between sets.

Keep your fitness a priority even when you are away! When you return to your regular schedule, it won’t take you as long to get back on track with your optimal shape.

Remember to make YOU a Priority in 2009!
