HOW TO STAY CONSISTENT WHEN TRAVELING

Staying fit on vacation doesn’t have to be complicated.
- Schedule your workout like any other appointment—add it to your itinerary

- Pack light equipment: resistance bands, a towel and a water bottle can be your gym
- Aim for energy, not perfection: it’s about moving, not maxing out
