Time Management Fitness Hacks

Just when you thought you didn’t have time

Stay fit when traveling?

  • With hotels only providing 1 or 2 water bottles as a courtesy, you may want to buy some water and drink plenty to stay hydrated.
  • Whether personal or business, look for a place with an indoor gym.
  • Exercise in your hotel room.
  • If traveling with friends, work out before everyone wakes up and starts their day. Once the day begins, exercising will most likely be the last thing on your mind.
  • Pack healthy snacks and choose more nutritious or low-calorie meals when eating at a restaurant. Don’t hesitate to ask the waiter or waitress for suggestions.
  • Invest in a travel duffel gym bag and include some gym essentials and take them with you. Oh, and don’t forget your yoga mat. 

Don't have time?

  • Work out before you get busy. It can be in the gym, outside of your home, or in the living room. If there’s no time in the morning exercise at night and vice versa.
  • Shorten your workouts. Depending on the type of exercise and how hard your workout is, you can feel satisfied with only 15 minutes.
  • Split up your exercise routine.
  • Eat healthier. A good diet is just as important.
  • Consider researching a safe weight loss supplement. 

Stay fit during lunch breaks

Rushing to stay fit is worth the rush

If your job has a small gym, it’s easier to work out during your breaks, but what do you do when there’s no gym in the workplace?

  • Go for a walk or light jog around the building.
  • Walk to get lunch if it’s within walking distance. Find a co-worker that enjoys walking too.
  • If there’s a gym within 10 minutes from your job, become a member. That’ll give you at least 20 minutes to work out, and you’ll still have time to shower and change before getting back to work.
  • Keep some lightweight workout accessories in or under your desk, like dumbbells or exercise bands. Don’t hesitate to use them while on your lunch break or at your desk when time permits.
