Stay Fit While Traveling: 5 Best CrossFit

Muscle-building, fat burning WODs that don’t require any gym equipment.

TRAVELING DOESN’T MEAN taking a break from staying strong and healthy. Even if you are staying at a hotel without a gym, if you can find a little floor space in your room, you can get in a good, sweaty workout.

 You can take any of these workouts up a notch by adding found weight. For example, if you’re traveling with a backpack, put it on your back or hold it to your chest and do your squats and push-ups with weight. Hold it over your head and add a little extra muscle to your sit-ups. Wear it on your run or up and down the stairs. Get creative!

Each of these workouts are intended to be done with little to no rest between exercises or rounds. If you need to take a breather or a sip of water, do it, but then get right back into it!

Take a look around your hotel room—there are probably a bunch of things you can use to add some challenging elements to these movements (put your feet up on the bed or a chair to turn your pushups into decline pushups; try plank-to-pushup on the couch or bed to add some instability; fill up the ice bucket and hold it overhead or to your chest for squats and sit-ups. (We’d recommend leaving the art attached to the wall and breakable vases in their rightful spots.)

Here are some great WODs that take advantage of some of these ideas.
