Exercises While Traveling

Don’t go more than 2 days without working out – that includes traveling. Learn exercises and tips to do while on road.

Day 1

Travel Exercise Tip #1

A fitness facility where you are staying can help keep you in the work out routine.  Even if you don’t have access to fitness equipment you can stay in shape while on the road.

Put your feet up on a bench or the bed and do push ups.  This will work a different part of your chest and shoulders and allow you to keep up with your exercise plan.  Repeat for 30-60 seconds.

Planks can be done anywhere to keep your core working even while you are on the road.  Try this plank variation that involves torso rotation to work your core muscles in a different way. Keep your arms extended, reach under and across with one arm, then rotate so that arm reaches up straight in the air. Repeat for 30-60 seconds on each side.

Jump lunges help you develop speed and power, but don’t require a lot of space or equipment. From the lunge position jump up and switch legs so your back leg moves to the front leg.  Land softly, squat down, and then jump out and switch back.  Repeat for 30-60 seconds.
