Fitness guru Liz Kampschroeder shares tips on how to stay on track with your goals while traveling this summer!
Nutrition:
- Plan your food before you leave
- Know your resources (mini fridge, microwave, full kitchen)
- Book hotels to accommodate your needs
- Check non perishable food items if flying (nuts, protein bars, etc.)
- Purchase perishables upon arriving at destination
- If driving load up coolers with organized foods-ziploc bags are great!!
- Increase your water intake to keep from becoming dehydrated, helps with hunger
Exercise:
- Pick accommodations that are gym friendly
- Travel with exercise bands which are easy to use anywhere
- Check out local gyms and ask for day passes
- Find walking trails, parks to walk/run
- Engage the family in physical activities
For both nutrition and exercise: Log your progress everyday to track what you are doing.
