Travel Workouts

A lot of people head out for the holidays. Just because you are away doesn’t mean you can’t workout. I have given you a list of exercises you can do anywhere and require zero equipment. You can mix them and match them and create multiple workouts.

Push ups
Body weight squats
Lunges
Mountain climbers
Body thrusters
Single leg squats
Jumping jacks
Jog in place
Abdominal exercises
Bridges
Planks

I have given you a pretty long list. Pick 7 or 8 and go through a circuit. Pick 1 or 2 and alternate on/off cycles. The choices are endless.

Another option for travel workouts with equipment is using an exercise band. They fold up and can be taken anywhere. Check the site and see for yourself.

Total Body Transformation Workout – For your workout today you are going to use a foam roller and roll the lats and do the angel (chest stretch). Spend about 5 minutes on each part. If you do not have access to a roller just stretch the lats and the chest.

Make sure if you are stretching; you go through about a 10 minute warm up. Tomorrow take the day off.

Stay Motivated,
