My Travel Workout ✈

Here’s a common scenario that pops up all the time:

« I’m traveling in the next few days. What can I do for my workout? »

Great question!

Today I want to share with you my training routine when I travel.

I have used a variation of this workout for more than a decade with customers traveling for work, wedding, long -standing vacation, you call it.

Let’s break it together to know exactly what to do next time you go on the road. 🙌

But first, I like to ask a really important question:

« What are you doing want This trip to look? « 

Because there is no « correct » answer.

Can:

• Stick closely to your current program And hunt for the gym, etc. (Important if you remain consistent questions about your goal – or just if you like it!)
• Take the very necessary week to rest (which is Perfectly well – Studies show that one week of complete rest does not interfere with the strength or muscle building. 💪)
• Or move on to a trip plan To maintain momentum (this is what we will cover today!)

Whatever it is, we just want to know Why We do it so that we can plan accordingly.

For anyone who wants to move, feel good and return home without losing their rhythm, here’s my place Weight training frameS

The frame for 5 movement

When I travel, I simply support it by splitting my whole body workout, which hits a little bit of everything.

That way, I don’t « wait » to work other parts of my body. I may not even get to the next workout, as the journey can be unpredictable at the best of the best!

Exercise # 1: a squat model

Progression:

Tip: If you struggle with squat mobility, try to put a wound towel under your heels to give yourself a little elevation. This removes ankle mobility from the equation! It is recommended for variations of squats with assisted and body weight. 👍

Exercise # 2: Pressing Model

Progression:

Tip: Initiate the press, imagining that you are slightly tilted by your shoulders-this will make it difficult!

Exercise # 3: hinged model

Progression:

Tip: The hinge is one of the most difficult things to train while on the road. If you can’t get a good workout with any of them i like to try a ​A side squat or beam​ As an alternative.

Exercise # 4: Model of pulling

Progression:

Tip: Another challenging trait of road training. I especially like the angular tum, but look what works for you! I have had some customers to pack a resistance tape so they can add things like rows of strips and bulbs without taking up a tone.

Exercise # 5: Auxiliary / Core / Conditioning

Options:

Tip: This is a place « free for all » in training. Usually I will make some main movement here, but it is a good place to throw a conditioning or other specific auxiliary work such as side lifts with the help of a backpack, etc. if you prefer!

How to use it

You may have noticed, « But Matt, there are no listed sets and repetitions here? »

I can’t slip anything past you. 😉 I usually execute this one of the two ways:

A. Time -based scheme:

Work 30 seconds, rest 30 seconds. Go through all 5 moves for 2-5 rounds.

You can even this by going to 40 seconds, a timer for 20 seconds to rest instead.

B. Rep-Match circles:

Start your first round by doing as many good -shaped reps as possible (up to 30 reps. If you can do 30 reps, try a more difficult variation if you can!)

Then do another 1 or 2 rounds, where you respond to the total number of reps you received in the first round, even if you need to take a short 10 second break to get there.

Example: Circle 1: 10 push supports

Round 2: 8 push -ups – rest – 2 push -ups

Round 3 (Optional): 6 push -ups – rest – 3 push -ups – rest – 1 impetus

Depending on which option and how many rounds you choose, this workout will fill you 10-25 minutes and let you feel fulfilled and ready to handle your day. 💪

Travel should not be failure. It’s just another environment to adapt to.

You can decide whether this trip is Deload, a week of « maintaining the moment » or a chance to try your creativity to stick to the plan as it is.

You have this!
