Hotel workout

I travel a lot for work and never know what kind of equipment will be available unless I have been there before.   Cardio seems to be the easiest to figure out as most hotels will have at least a treadmill, bike, elliptical, or some combination of the three.  Be prepared to adapt your cardio to whatever you have available and don't be scares of that machine you have never used.  These are the times I change my attempt at HIIT whether it be walking at an incline and altering the inclines or jogging / running with the inclines. I utilize an app on my phone JEFIT for keeping track of routines and it has a library of exercises with animation of how it should be completed.

Some hotels have a full range of dumbbells and benches or machines or both.  Again be prepared to be creative.   On this last trip my hotel had just dumbbells and benches and well, I had to come up with a leg work out. I can tell you that two days later I can barely walk lol, mostly because of my first leg workout since my injury. I did dumbbells squats supersetted with dumbbells lunges. I then moves to dumbbells dead lifts and was about to superset with the exercise on the video where you lift your leg on a bench and motion as sitting. Well, this didn't work for me as I was exhausted and almost falling. Quite the fun visual thinking back on it now. I then moved on to standing dumbbell calf raises and a superset of single dumbbell calf raises. ABS were last and I did your basic crunches on the floor with a superset of bench leg raises. What a workout! http://www.ehow.com/video_7381153_hamstring-workout-dumbbells.html
