Leaving for the Holidays? No gym? No problem

November 12, 2007

Ah’ Christmas and Thanksgiving. What better time to lay off your workouts, eat like you haven’t in weeks, and gain 20 extra pounds. How terrible is that? And yet this is exactly what many people do. Winter hits, hard, and the once so motivated fitness enthusiast finds themselves in a hopeless spiral of food and laying on the couch. But do not fear. I am going to be doing a mini-series of blogs to help you avoid this holiday rut. The first excuse I want you to get rid of is a “lack of a gym”. Just because you are on vacation doesn’t mean you can’t workout. In the article “The Workout That Travels With You”, David Zinczenko gives a fail-proof workout that can be done almost anywhere. So dust off those tennis shoes, say no to that fruitcake, and try it out!
