Hotel Workouts To Try While You’re Traveling

We’ve all been there a time or two (or for some of us majority of the week if you’re in sales) where we are traveling—whether it be for business or pleasure. You plan out your trip and where you’re staying in advance and then the big day comes and you check into the hotel after a long day on the road. You’re sitting in your room wondering what to do for the rest of the night. Maybe some television? Or hit the sack early to get ready for the next day? If only you were home you could get in a good workout. Or can you? Of course, you can get in good hotel workouts!

Hotel Workouts Can Be Some of the BEST Workouts

The key to getting in good hotel workouts is to be creative. Of course, you don’t have the luxury of a squat rack and a line of dumbbells the length of your room but you have everything right there in the room that you need. To make things even easier, you could always use the small hotel gym if you so choose to, but for the purpose of this article let’s talk specifically about working out in your hotel room.

Your hotel workouts will consist of body weight exercises as well as some weighted dependent on what you have available in your room (such as your suitcase filled with items). To save yourself some embarrassment, if you like to grunt and yell when you are at the gym, it’s recommended to refrain from that during the workout in your room. It will save you from a knock on the door asking if everything is all right since people will certainly be calling the front desk to complain about the noise.

So let’s get into the workout itself. Make sure you have a clear path around you so you have a safe environment to complete the exercises. You can also have water nearby or even your BCAA mix if you brought it along on your trip. It is recommended to begin your hotel workouts with a 5-minute warm-up consisting of brisk walking around the room, jumping jacks, or any type of calisthenics you’re able to perform in the space available to get your heart-rate up, muscles loose, and blood pumping.
