Vacation is not necessarily a time to let go of your fitness routine instead think about it as an opportunity to help you live an active lifestyle. If you plan for vacation in your routine your hard work preparing your vacation body doesn’t have to end on the day you leave albeit you may chuck the hard work for a few days.
Once you’ve got all the pre-planning preparation down it will be time to start looking at your current workouts so you’ll be ready to tackle your greatest adventure. Whether it be marathon shopping, lounging by the pool, hiking the boundary waters; you need training.
Where is your stamina going to come from? How are you going to stay focused? When I work with clients who have a large event looming ahead we plan their training accordingly. I cycle through the time prior to the trip so they are prepared for whatever they find on vacation.
Even lying by the pool for solid days takes work and it is especially sweet when you know you’ve earned the cycle down week by training hard the weeks before your trip. You can enjoy umbrella drinks, sunshine, and great meals 100% guilt free (remember life is about balance)!
