Or one of cardio on the beach, or go for a run in a new city. thenice environment, nature and the novelty of the landscape can liven up the exercise and make it more desirable. Why not end this leg routine with a good dip in the river? If, on the other hand, you prefer to train under a roof, more and more hotels they have small and not so small gyms in which to train or even offer guided activities in the common areas.

“The most effective exercise is what you do.” This is a maxim of fitness that is more than demonstrable. It’s no use stuffing your bum in your suitcase if you later find 2,000 excuses not to go for a run. To avoid falling into this temptation, a good solution is to determine the time of day that we will devote to exercise. Maybe it’s getting us up half an hour before the others and going out for a run in the cool of the morning, or maybe our moment is before dinner, when the sun has gone down while the others are resting. But it is clear that if a hole is reserved, it will be easier to carry it out. Likewise, it will be important to know what will be done. It’s not enough to put the bellies on at nap time because then comes the question: ‘what now?’ If you have doubts about how to adapt your gym exercises outdoors or if you prefer to carry out one different routine in the summer, contact a training professional so they can give you some guidelines you can follow wherever you are.
