As much as I love to travel it always throws a wrench into my workout routine. My regular schedule is out the window; I don’t have my equipment; often I don’t have much space to work with especially in hotel rooms and finding the time to exercise can be a challenge. Since I’ve been out of the country for a few weeks visiting family and have had to improvise with my regular exercise regime I thought I would share this workout for those of you in the same situation. But keep in mind this is also great for home workouts too. One tip I would suggest is to pack a jump rope and a resistance band, as they are small, compact, and inexpensive. You can get a great cardio workout and do a variety of exercises with the band.

Choose the option that best fits your fitness level but try and challenge yourself too. Do a 3-5 minute warm-up of jogging on the spot, jumping jacks or stairs, or jump rope.

WORKOUT:  Level 1: 30” work/10” *rest, 1 round  Exercise, Traveler's Workout, cardio, total body, intervals, core, back, legs, chest, no equipment, timed, jump rope, small space, tips from town

Circuit:

  1. Pushups (knees, toes, or alternating one-legged)

* For an added challenge, take out the rest and do some form of cardio between each exercise (jump rope/high knees/ jump squats etc) for 30 seconds.
