Being a personal trainer, I have first hand experience with the healing benefits of regular moderate exercise. All you need is 20 minutes a day of steady activity to stay in shape and stay lean.
I'm not a fanatic buy any means, but...
I take working out very seriously. I treat each training session as a chance to uncover my weak points and train them to be my strongest assets.
Anyway....
I was out partying with my nephew and nieces and I asked my nephew if he was going to work out tomorrow(today). His answer:
"I'm on vacation.. I'm not doing nothin!!!"
Don't you know how hard I wanted to slap his big shiny earring out of his ear?!!?!?
I couldn't believe what I was hearing. Why the hell would anyone want to take a break from exercising?
Regular exercisers know how good it feels to work out. You know how good you feel after breaking a mild sweat.
Did you know that your skin is the biggest organ on your body.
Did you know that most of the toxins that we eliminate are expelled through the pores of our skin?
When you look at those two benefits of exercise, it does make sense to me that a person would take a break from their program.
Of course, if you are sick or you have an injury, then of course, take a break and reduce your activity level. You don't have to stop completely.
Did you know that ancient greek doctors prescribed light exercise as a form of "medicine"?
Can you say... Tangent?!?!?
Anyway..
You can still maintain your physique with moderate exercise, no matter where you vacation.
All you need are:
1) Resistance, which can be provided with your own bodyweight.
2) A flight stairs or a city block, so you can go for a power walk or jog( sprinting is best for increase oxygen uptake).
3) Room so you can stretch all your muscles after your workout.
And..viola!!
You have a complete workout in 15 minutes or less!! While you're on vacation!!
BOOM!!!
