To transform your body in a positive way you musthave a concern forthree elements:

1.Supportive Nutrition

2.Aerobic exercise

3.Resistance exercise

If any one of thesethree components is missing, or if you have them in the wrong order you will be limited at best. Apply them correctly you become the sculptor and your body the clay!

The rest of this article focuses on the exercise component beneficial to travelers in the summer travel season, in addition to anytime you need a great workout but don't have much equipment nearby.

"What should I do for my workout while I'm traveling?" It's a consistent questionI'm askedever since I became a personaltrainer.

An extremely important question because missing workouts while traveling can definitely impede motivation and improvements you've worked sohard for while performing your regular exercise program.

One of the options I tell my clients is finding a gym where you are traveling to and get your regular workoutdone. No excuse. Just do it and you'll feel spectacular!

Without question...this is probably the best solution in the right circumstances. However, there are times when that strategy is more inconvenient than we are willing to deal with.

Don't worry though --I discovered a better, more practical, do-it-anywhere-anytime for my clients which you can benefit from. I asked them to pack a couple resistance tubes in their suitcase and ask them to follow a calisthenics based routine during each day of the week. Here is a sample routine that could be donedaily for someone who already has moderate level of fitness and has no orthopedic problems.

Jumping jacks

Bodyweight squats

Pushups

Reverse Lunges (one leg a time)

Rows with resistance tubing

Shoulder presses with resistance tubing

Shoulder side raises with resistance tubing

Tricep kickbacks with resistance tubing

One leg calf raise

Perform 2-3 sets of each exercise for 20 repetition with little rest between sets (move fast)

This routine shouldn't take more than 30 minutes to complete. Cool-down by stretching ALL major muscles of your body.

Perform that routine on your next trip and let me know how you do. You may even be in better shape coming back from your trip than you started.
