Just like it\u2019s important to have your home and<\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/rosiemoore.com\/spring-clean-kitchen\/\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">kitchen<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> set up for success, your suitcase is no exception. You want to pack items that support a health and exercise mindset while you travel. This applies to both work trips and holidays. And in the same way you plan ahead to book excursions, take in the sights or try new restaurants, be sure to make the time to plan for healthy eating and activities.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"color: #ed675b;\">Step #1:<\/span> Pack for Fitness<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make it easy for yourself to workout anytime, anywhere. It\u2019s much easier to find motivation if you\u2019re prepared. Pack these essentials:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jump rope<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Resistance bands<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cross trainers<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Quick drying, moisture-wicking workout clothes<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your favorite playlist<\/span><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These items will ensure you always have what you need for a workout\u2014no excuses (If you&#8217;re curious about what types of exercises work best for a travel workout, connect with me on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/_rosiemoore_\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Instagram<\/a>).&nbsp; Now, let\u2019s talk about your game plan.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"color: #ed675b;\">Step #2:<\/span> Plan for Fitness and Nutrition BEFORE Your Trip<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Do some research and planning beforehand to go into your vacation with a game plan. Here are my top actionable tips to check off:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Look for a nearby gym.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you have a chain gym membership, see if one of your gyms is nearby wherever you\u2019re staying. If not, you might be able to get a day- or week-long pass, which most gyms offer to non-members.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If neither of those are an option, see what active opportunities are around you. For example:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">See if you can walk to any fun locations.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you have fun destinations planned during the day, see if there\u2019s a way to walk or bike to them instead of driving or taking public transit. You\u2019ll easily get in some extra exercise and have a unique chance to explore the area!<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Look for running paths, bike paths, or hiking locations.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Give yourself the option of outdoor activity by looking for places where you can jump on a bike, go for a walk or fit in a run.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If nothing else, there\u2019s always the option to go for a walk around the neighborhood or do a workout in the room where you\u2019re staying. Use those resistance bands, put on your training shoes and grab your jump rope to create a quick and fun workout for yourself. If it\u2019s beautiful where you\u2019re vacationing or traveling to, do it outside!<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Anticipate your meals and decide in advance when you can.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re staying in a hotel, can you plan for a healthy breakfast based on what they provide? Some hotels will include an overview of their breakfast items online, or you can make a quick call to find out.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re staying with relatives or friends, let them know about your goals to eat healthy while away. They might already have some foods you can utilize while there, but if not, how can you provide them yourself? What can you pack to take with you? And where\u2019s the nearest grocery store where you can buy the items you need?<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Focus first on vegetables, fruits, healthy proteins, and healthy fats.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make it your game plan priority to seek out these foods before anything else. This will help you focus on the best basics no matter where you\u2019re eating and fill yourself up with good nutrition even amidst the working client dinners or \u201cvacation food.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #ed675b;\">The biggest takeaways here: pack smart, prepare a plan, and fit nutrition and physical activity into each travel day.&nbsp;<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And if you need help implementing this or simply want to learn more about working with a fitness and nutrition coach, I&#8217;d be delighted to speak with you &#8211;<\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/rosiemoore.com\/contact-me\/\">&nbsp;<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">contact me<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">! <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Have some travel plans coming up?
