Throughout December I’ve been relocated nearly a dozen times for 2 to 4 day periods, and it’s been very hard to maintain my aggressively balanced physical training routine.
I often point out the difference between energy exertion and effort. At home, it’s comparably easy to fall into a healthy routine; this requires regular energy exertion but very little effort. In the case of travel, adhering to training goals requires a lot of extra effort and we don’t often train for this variety of challenge. Here are a couple ideas to help stay healthy in times of frequent travel.
Always Prepared
It’s far to easy to forget running shoes or a pair of shorts and use it as an excuse to not exercise. Keep a pair of old running shoes and athletic gear in your suitcase and trunk, even when you don’t plan on travelling.
Versatile Activities
Activities like running, push ups and sit ups can be done virtually anywhere.
Travel can be pretty exhausting. Sitting in a car or plane for hours is physically taxing. Unfortunately, it’s most important after being cramped up and still for hours to get out and loosen up and keep yourself in shape. Happy travels!
