Stay on TRACK while TRAVELING!

Recently, I have a lot of clients going on vacations and road trips! They are all wondering how they can maintain their new healthy lifestyles while on a vacation, so I decided to write a little cheat sheet of tips! These are some of the things I do when getting ready to go on a trip, hope it helps you all stay on track! :)

How to TRAVEL FIT while staying on YOUR PLAN!

Guidelines by Nina Anderson, CPT

 

 

·         Call your hotel and request a fridge & microwave! Also ask what equipment, if any, the gym has.

·         If where you are staying doesn’t have a gym, look some up on the way there! Or go for outdoor a run, sometimes that’s the best way to experience a new town!

·         Prepare all your meats, portion them out and freeze them into baggies! J

·         Portion into baggies your dry foods (such as oatmeal/cream of rice/rice cakes/Ezekiel bread/etc.)

·         Bring extra baggies/utensils/measuring cups/food scale/water bottle

·         Pack your oils (flax seed &EVOO, etc.) in travel shampoo bottles!

·         When you get to your destination, go to a grocery store and stock up on your fruits and veggies!

·         Pack extra Protein Powder!

·         Hard boil your eggs but do not freeze them!

·         Put all your freezer food into a dry ice pack, and put it into your checked bad or just check it! Bring all other food into your regular cooler, and you can carry that onto the plane! Just make sure any liquids are within guidelines, or better yet, just pack those into your freezer pack!

·         If you have a small skillet or George foreman grill, bring it! That way you can buy your food all there, and prep it in your hotel room!

·         Pack all of you supplements or portion them out in baggies by times/days!

·         Instead of packing eggs or hard boiled eggs>>make Protein Pancakes! They freeze great!!!

·         If you’re on the road, gas stations almost always have a microwave you can use! Sometimes a warm meal is just what you may need!

·         MOST OF ALL HAVE FUN ~ staying prepared is KEY, and it can be done ANYWHERE!!! J
