Things You'll Need:
- Travel Services
- Ankle Weights
-
Step 1
Book a room at a hotel with a gym. If gym hours are inconvenient or if the hotel is without a gym, find out if it has an arrangement with a local gym.
-
Step 2
Take advantage of layovers to stretch your legs with a brisk run or jog.
-
Step 3
Take a walk every hour during the flight to avoid swollen feet and ankles.
-
Step 4
Avoid dehydration on the plane by drinking 8 oz. water every hour, and avoid alcohol, caffeine and salty foods.
-
Step 5
Make use of your surroundings when you reach your destination. If the hotel is on the beach, take an early morning beach jog. If it's in the city, try walking to your appointment instead of hopping into a taxi.
-
Step 6
Exercise in the privacy of your hotel room: Do sit-ups, push-ups, pull-ups and squats. Consider stretching and yoga exercises, which require no additional equipment or clothes.
-
Step 7
Remember to set regular exercise hours - either early morning or early evening - and stick to them.

on 7/15/2009 Hotels now with cable Video on Demand channels have ExerciseTV which is a free station with hundreds of different types of workouts ranging from short 6 minute videos to 60 minutes. If you are having a busy day you can easily go into your room do a 15 minute cardio set and you are on your way to the next activity!

on 3/26/2009 Some hotels are offering in room treadmills and are planning in room treadmill desks. You will be able to get all your work done and lose weight at the same time.
