Organizing Training While Traveling
You are a successful professional, you care a lot about your health, you take your training seriously, but traveling for work interrupts your training program. What can you do to make things easier and improve your results?
PLAN AHEAD OF TIME
Plan the details of your training program that includes when you’re gonna train, how often, what the focus will be, and when you’re gonna take time to recover. Include your travel in your plan so that you can adjust your training priorities as you need to.
BE CLEAR ON YOUR GOALS
Your training plan is taking you in a direction that you get to decide. Your goals help determine your training decisions. If you’re a marathon runner you won’t choose to do a bodybuilding training program. Clear goals helps create a specific and individualized program. You’ll have an idea of what result to expect and can adjust as needed
MAKE RECOVERY A PRIORITY
Traveling disrupts normal routine and normal rhythm. Training just to train might not give the best result possible. You can use travel as a chance to have a recovery week. Use your down time to focus on rest, healing, and recovery from prior training. When you resume your workouts you’ll be ready to maximize your efforts.
ROME WASN’T BUILT IN A DAY
Expect the unexpected. Do the best you can and seek to improve on that. Be flexible and learn to make the decision that will provide the best benefit to your body in the short term and the long term.
When you’re traveling your nutritional support becomes even more important because of the added stress of changing time zones, lack of sleep, and airport food. A high quality multivitamin is an essential to add to your travel bag. I recommend Usana Cellsentials. You can contact me to try them for yourself.
