The Ultimate 30-Minute Travel Workout 

February 24, 2018

The Ultimate 30-Minute Travel Workout 

We should never underestimate or neglect the importance of physical training in your life.  This piece is for those of you who travel frequently during the week…overnighters or for a few days, at a distance not too far.  More than 15 million people do this per week.

Truck drivers are self-sufficient folks; however, this article is for them, too.  Businessmen and those who make commutes of about a hundred miles or so with a one to two-day layover by vehicle may benefit from this piece.  What we’re talking about is toting some of your weights with you, in your vehicle.  Dumbbells are what I’m referring to here, with a “short-term” workout you may find to your benefit.  Traveling businesspeople and salesmen are not immune to needing physical training, so this may help them, too.

Don’t Forget to Pack Your Weights!

There are many motels and hotels that we are obliged to stay in, whether directed by our firms (and paid for) or paid out-of-pocket…budget “rest stops” to cut down on the costs.  Most of the time these places do not have weight room facilities or perks: they’re just a room with a roof over your head.  Take a set of dumbbells with you in the trunk of your vehicle and give yourself a workout in the morning.

 Let’s suggest some exercises for you:

Biceps and Triceps Day

  1. Alternating Curl –  3-5 Sets/8 Reps
  2. Triceps Extensions – 3-5 Sets/8 Reps
  3. Wrist Rolls –  3 Sets/20 Reps
  4. Radial Curls – 3 Sets/8 Reps

Chest and Shoulders Day

  1. Dumbbell Bench Press – 3-5 Sets/8 Reps
  2. Dumbbell Military Press – 3 Sets/8 Reps
  3. Shoulder Shrugs – 3 Sets/8 Reps

Lower Body

  1. Abs (Right, Left, Center) – 3 sets of 10 reps (beginners)
  2. Wall Squats (with or without weights in your lap) – 3 sets: 30 to 1 min for beginners
  3. Flutter Kicks – 3 sets of 10 (8-count), with 30 to 1:00 min rest between
