Are you traveling for the holidays? Are you staying put but don’t have access to your regular fitness classes?
Here are some brief things I put together to let you know what I plan on doing as I travel home to my parents house in Wisconsin with the husband. These are all related to health and fitness.
What I’ll do:
- Body-weight workouts
- Workouts using items found around the house
- Swim at the indoor pool
- Partner workouts using the husband for equipment
- Run with the dogs at the park
- Shovel snow
- Work on mobility/mobilizations
- Relax/sleep a lot
What I’ll bring:
- 1 Rogue resistance/multi-purpose band
- Lacrosse ball for fascia, trigger point work
- Compression socks for plane
- My Triathlon watch (Garmin 920XT)
- Workout Clothes
What I’ll eat:
- 85% my same healthy, mostly paleo diet so I still feel good
- My own cooking to teach my parents about different food options
- I’ll definitely be eating some not so healthy foods here and there and I won’t feel bad about it. These will/may include: cheese curds, biscuits & gravy, Spotted Cow beer (only made in WI)
- Still continuing to drink plenty of water (around 3 Liters a day)
What I’ll do for mental health:
- Spend quality time with the parentals, the husband, and the dogs
- Visit childhood friends
- Help parents out with things they may need assistance with
- Read/research, but not too much work. I usually end up reading fitness books/articles/videos, but only because I thoroughly enjoy learning new things that I can work in with my own clients and classes
