Use the excuse of a break to burn more calories while consuming less
Last week we looked at the advantages of hotel-room workouts while you are away on business or pleasure, and how not having access to a gym should not be a barrier to continuing with your fitness routine.
These go-to bodyweight exercises (below) can really help to improve your shape and burn up calories.
They can also be done in the comfort of your own hotel room or, if you would rather workout outdoors, you can take them outside.
The best thing about them is that all you need is yourself and a bit of motivation. They are a great option also for when you are simply restricted for time, stuck at home, or as an extra calorie-burning workout.
Eating healthy food also plays an important role in feeling energised and on top of the world, and most people automatically eat better when they workout.
After all, it is unlikely that you will go to all that effort to burn calories only to fill yourself mindlessly with empty calories.
However, this doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy your holidays and have nice meals every night.
