Simple Travel Workouts For Every Trip
1. Leg Flexes
This little exercise is quite simple and unlikely to disturb other passengers. It will look like you’re just stretching your legs a little bit, but really, you’re flexing your legs and working on your leg muscles. Point your toes and flex your calves. Hold the flex for as long as you can. Then, point your toes back towards you as much as you can, creating a 90 degree angle between your foot and your ankle. Flex in this position, again, holding it as long as you can. Sure, this exercise isn’t as rewarding or toning as squats, but it’s an exercise nonetheless.
3. Exercise Band Arm Curls
This travel workout requires someloop bands. Hold the exercise band with both hands. Put your right arm at a 90 degree angle with your waist, palm down. Hold the end of the band with your left arm, palm up. With your right arm held at waist level, do some arm curls with your left arm, using your right arm to create tension with the band. Switch arms and repeat.
Fellow passengers will definitely notice this travel exercise, but it’s quiet and doesn’t require more than a seat’s worth of space.
5. Ab Flexes
Pull your stomach in and out, flexing your stomach and breathing out small puffs of air.
This is an easy workout to do while sitting down in any location.
6. Loop Band Leg Pulses
Grab an exerciseloop band and loop it over both of your legs. Put it around your calves or your thighs and do 20 reps of pulses, pulling your legs away from each other and back in again. This travel workout is so simple and can tone your legs quite well. It’s a good exercise for stops too. Just stand up and do the same thing.
