Exercise when traveling

With a vacation in my near future my mind is turned to how I am going to continue to exercise while traveling. So here are some quick and easy ways to make exercise possible while on the road.....

1. Bring some resistance bands. They are light weight and easy to stow away in a suitcase.

2. Bring a workout dvd to play while in the hotel room.

3. Make sure to pack exercise clothes so that you don't have an excuse when getting to your destination.

4. If you are traveling for work or pleasure try to find a coworker or friend to join you in exercising. If    you have someone you are committed to meeting you are more likely to workout.

5. Take advantage of the hotel gym. You are paying for the thing, you might as well use it!

6. If you are traveling to a unique and cool location, look before your trip to see if there are any cool running or walking trails in the city or community.

Just because you are out of town doesn't mean you have to make excuses for not being able to exercise. Whether it is 10 minutes or an 60 minutes, it is great to plan ahead to make sure you continue to meet your fitness needs while traveling!

Have a great weekend!
