Become Fit to Travel

There are a lot of aspects of boot camp that I love.
And there are many aspects of boot camp that my clients love.

The intensity of the workouts
How short the classes are
How there is no wasted time
The camaradarie
The support system
The feeling of belonging to an exclusive group
The new appreciation for exercise and what it can do for them.

But one of the most rewarding pieces of boot camp that I
love the most is the fact that everyone that experiences boot camp
now has the power to take what they have learned and implement it
into their lives.
Events like traveling are a popular event
where many of us forget about exercise or eating right.
It's not necesarily because we WANT to forget about these
parts of our lives.
We just don't know how.
My bootcampers know how
and I'm going to share that with you right now.
Start with your bodyweight
You have several options including but not limited to:
Push ups
Squats
Lunges
Burpees
Hill Climbers
Rows/Pull ups
Dips
Step ups
You can throw a quick circuit together by staying in your room
and doing 15 reps of each without rest or choose a few of them
and cycle through the list 2 or 3 times.
Doesn't look that bad, but try it can kick your a##!
You can also bring some easy packing equipment with you like:
Jump Rope
Stretch Bands
And you can make the workout a little more challenging by adding
these tools to your travel program.
If you happen to stay at a hotel that has a 'fitness room' you will probably
find some cardio equipment, and if your lucky, some weights.
Intervals on a treadmill or bike, and dumbbells, well
thats too easy:)
When it comes to eating, throw a bunch of your favorite
healthy snacks together and pack them with you.
When dining out, make a concerted effort to choose
lean proteins and vegetables as much as possible.
As I always tell my clients, choose a protein and a vegetable.
It isn't always a perfectly healthy choice, but your chances
are better.
Boot camp will better equip you to take your lifestyle on the road
but if you can't make it to boot camp, use these tips for a better traveling
lifestyle.
