Workout Routine for the Busy Traveler

So you are a busy career woman who is constantly traveling for your job. This means a different city, a different hotel, and long days are your norm. All the travel makes it so hard to get a decent workout schedule down. Sometimes the hotel has a gym, sometimes not. You usually only stay for a night or two and don’t want to travel a half hour to the closest gym. This workout routine is perfect for your hotel room. No matter if you get it in first thing in the morning, or late at night, this workout routine gives you zero excuses not to get it done!

The Struggles

Jumping from city to city, sitting on a plane, and enduring endless meetings means you are a busy woman. When you are home, you enjoy hitting the gym and getting in a good sweat. However, most of the time you are in the air, trying to get results in a very short period of time each day. After a long day of meetings you don’t want to do battle in the hotel gym. You don’t want to just go run mindlessly on the treadmill. You want a physical challenge that will burn off the fatigue that travel and business has layered onto you.

However, you don’t want to venture out to find a gym because you will be packing up and heading out the next day. Plus you already put in a 14 hour day. You just want to burn it up, take a shower, eat and hit the sack. You usually have the room to yourself, so that is a plus. This workout routine will burn off that fatigue, ignite your appetite, and get you looking lean and mean in your business suit. As long as you have a set of resistance bands, a chair, and some determination, you can do this workout routine!
