Otherwise known as gliders, this simple yet effective equipment makes any bodyweight workout more challenging. What’s more, it’s flat, making it easy to stow away against the wall of your suitcase. You can move the sliders with your feet to get a leg or core workout or move them with your arms for an intense back-strengthening session.

]]>Besides researching all the great attractions that the city you’re visiting has to offer, you can also research the places to work out. Look for bike rentals and running paths, and check if your hotel maybe has a gym, yoga, or fitness studio.
While packing for your trip, do not forget to pack a few pieces of exercise clothes. Chose those that are made of quick-drying material, so you can easily wash them and have them dried until tomorrow. Don’t forget your running shoes and make room in your suitcase for your favorite pair.
Many gyms offer daily free passes, or sometimes even weekly passes. Hotels also have deals with local gyms for special discounts, so check if the hotel you’re planning to stay at during your trip has some special offers you could use.

]]>Walking really is the best exercise and between walking around at the airport and exploring a new city, it’s really easy to stay active while on vacation. At the airport, you can walk instead of using the moving sidewalks or take the stairs instead of the elevator. Once you reach your destination, try and walk as much as possible. You’ll save money and get a great workout!
When road tripping, set aside time for a break and to stretch. Go for a short walk to refresh before you continue your journey.
There are some great workouts that you can do in your hotel room including bodyweight exercises, yoga, and workout videos. Your hotel may even have room-based workout tools like stretch bands, mats, and exercise balls—just ask the front desk upon arrival.
Many hotel chains offer small fitness centers or pools, so use these to your advantage. Start your day with a morning workout, so you don’t have to worry about exercising for the rest of the day.
If you’re feeling bold, try a local fitness class. You’ll get to try something new while seeing which fitness trends are popular in that location.

]]>Instead of using public transport you can go sightseeing on foot or rent a bike. It’s the perfect way to burn all those extra calories you have gained at breakfast.
Is that famous castle situated on a hill? Great! Do not use the elevator, instead, use the stairs to climb up, and voila, your cardio is done for the day!
If your hotel doesn’t have a gym, no worries, you can always go for a walk to the nearby park and do your workout there. A good run or two around the park will do the job.
Vitamin sea will definitely nourish your body and swimming wakes up every inch of your body. If your traveling destination doesn’t include a seaside, just use the swimming pool at your hotel.

]]>If you can’t imagine going for a week without your gym, pick a hotel that has one. It might be a little bit more expensive than the budget-friendly spots you usually go for, but it’s totally worth it.
You don’t need a stationary bike at your hostel to go for a nice ride. Sign up for one of the bike tours in the city you’re visiting, and you’ll burn some major calories while learning interesting facts about a new culture.
You probably won’t have enough room in your suitcase to bring all your favorite gym essentials, but packing one basic piece of equipment can make a lot of difference. Jump rope is our personal favorite since it’s light and tiny – but still can provide you with a full-body workout.

]]>Next, you’ll do 2 push ups followed by a rest.
You’ll keep going, 3, 4, 5, 6… until you’ve reached the top of the pyramid. For the first pyramid, you could go to level 6, or level 10 and then go back down. Level 20 is a huge goal to reach later on.
Now that you’re at the top there’s only one way to go, back down. Begin with the largest number of push-ups and rest, going back down in numbers until you reach the bottom of the pyramid.
As you build stamina, you can up the size of your pyramid and go to 12 or 20, or even 30 if you get really good!
You can try it with friends, or maybe it’s time for a vacation to Cambodia!
