One of my biggest struggles being on the road is staying in shape. I get wined and dined while
touring around incredible destinations and the last thing I want to do with my little free time is work out.
I usually check email instead. However, if you have more will power than me but don’t have enough to go down to the hotel gym, then you might want to check out this website. It offers fitness workouts that you can download for FREE and use in your hotel room. You just need a high-speed connection and you do need to register, which takes about 30 seconds. They offer a wide array of workouts from yoga, pilates, aerobics, martial arts, cardio training, kickboxing and workouts for abs, buns and thighs … you name it, they’ve got it covered. You can even keep an online journal, use their diet plans and save your favorites. The best part is that it can be accessed from anywhere in the world, 24/7 and users can watch as many videos as they like. So what are you waiting for? Don’t be lazy like me. Get cracking!
