Traveling is something that most people love to do and wish they could do more often.  The only problem with traveling is, believe it or not, it does disrupt your daily life a bit.  You see, humans are creatures of habit.  We have our daily routines and generally don’t like change.  Traveling for a week might not disrupt the flow of things too bad, but a month…that could mess a person up!

We can’t wait for this trip, but we have one major predicament.  You see, for the past four months we have gotten into…and I mean really into crossfit!  Just ask our friends. Its all we talk about.  I mean they MUST be getting sick of it by now.  For those of you who are unfamiliar with crossfit, let me break it down for you. It’s a military like workout, that is timed and consists of a variety of
strength based exercises.  No one workout is the same. Your body hates you for doing it, but the results are undeniable. The question is, how do we maintain our obsession (yup, I called it an obsession) over the thirty days we are separated from our  gym? Here are a few of options:

1. While in transit, we can attempt workouts that do not required equipment. Squats, push ups, burpees, lunges, etc. This might work in a hotel room, but just imagine the looks we might get if we are doing squats in the middle of the aisle of our train!

2. We can scour the internet (or iphone app) for local Crossfit gyms in the cities we’ll be visiting. Rumor has it you can visit most gyms for around $10, which won’t break the bank.

3. We will be walking around cities for miles at a time and hiking in Montana and Arizona.  I suppose this does count as exercise, but like I said, we’re addicted, so this probably doesn’t count.

Considering how great our followers are, we were wondering what ideas you might have for us? Drop us a comment and let us know how you exercise on the go.  Thanks.
