Workout Wednesday: Travel Edition

Traveling, whether for vacation or business, is a popular excuse to put a pause on one's exercise routine. But in reality, there's really no excuse-you don't even need equipment to get in a great, quickie workout! Use the workout below from the comfort of your hotel room and keep your great shape, even when you're out of town.

Repeat each tri-set/cardio blast 3 times before moving to the next tri-set.

High knees/jumping jacks to warm up

Tri-set #1




  • Bed to floor push ups (8 on bed, 8 on floor; 7 on bed, 7 on floor; 6 on floor, 6 on floor...to 1)


  • 1 minute traveling lunges


  • 12 Tricep dips off chair


Cardio blast: 1 minute jump squats



Tri-set #2




  • 30 seconds walking planks, switch sides for 30 seconds (start on forearms, move to hands and then back down)


  • Side planks (45 sec each side)


  • Hip ups (1 leg bridges...20 each side)


Cardio blast: 1 minute burpees

Enjoy!
