Exercise on Vacation

Exercising while on vacation can be tough and it might be hard to motivate yourself. If it's a 3 day vacation you can most likely skip it. If you go for a week or so . . . . .

Not everyone likes to run but running is a part of my exercise routine. Running in new areas makes it enjoyable. When we went to Niagara Falls, I was up while everyone else was sleeping and went for a 3 mile run past Niagara Falls. I went behind it and then ran in different areas and saw some areas I thought the family would enjoy.

I got back to the room before everyone else had woke up and took my shower. I didn't take time away from my family and had an enjoyable session.

One exercise you can do for your strength training portion of your workout is the hindu push up. This works the entire upper body. I like to do as many as I can daily when on vacation.

I go on vacation to rest and relax but a little exercise thrown in keeps my motivated when I get back home. Try it.
