I know some people are against working out when they go on vacation. I am not one of those people. I’m a morning person and typically awake before the rest of my traveling companions so if I like to do something productive while everyone still sleeps. Productive and enjoyable for me. Exercise!
I love getting to explore new gyms, fitness centers or towns on foot while getting in some good fitness time.
As you know we recently took a little vacation to Hawaii and the fitness room was one of the first things I checked out upon arriving.
Fitness center and pool at our condo
It was a little small but I knew it would do the trick. Most mornings I was able to get in a nice WOD incorporating the treadmill or bike. Here’s a few of my travel WOD’s from this past trip.
If you don’t have a treadmill or access to somewhere to run you can substitute rowing, elliptical or jumping rope.
This one was much tougher than it looked and my legs were on fire afterwards! Not to mention my booty! Make sure you have some sort of padding when doing all those sit-ups. I had quite the rug burn on my tailbone
Again you can add in any other form of cardio before and after this WOD.
The Love Nugget likes to join in on the workout fun from time to time so when I asked The Hubby if he wanted to do a little WOD, with me our little man begged to join in.
We couldn’t refuse so planned a short WOD that he could participate in,
To make sure he got to join in we took turns holding him during squats,
and push-ups
When we were done The Love Nugget and Hubby did some chest presses,
While I traveled back up the ladder on my WOD.
It was a quick one but a fun way to get in a little workout with the whole family
QUESTIONS –
- Do you exercise while on vacation?
- Are you ever able to get your whole family involved?
