Summer Strength!

How to Maintain Strength & Mobility During Summer Travels

Summer brings sunshine, adventure, and often—disruption to our routines. Whether you're road-tripping, flying to visit family, or spending long weekends by the lake, your strength and mobility practice doesn’t have to take a vacation. In fact, staying active (in realistic, flexible ways) can make your travels more enjoyable and energizing.

Here’s how to stay strong, mobile, and grounded—no matter where summer takes you.

✈️ Pack Light, Move Smart

You don’t need a full gym to stay on track. These small, packable tools can give you a surprisingly effective workout:

• Resistance bands (loop or long): Great for glute activation, core, and upper body

• Sliders or towels: Perfect for core work or leg strength on any surface

• Yoga socks or grippy socks: Useful for balance work, mobility, and yoga

• A journal: To track your movement, energy, and even your breathwork or gratitude

  
  

🏖️ Try This 15-Minute Travel-Friendly Routine

No equipment needed—just your body and a little floor space.

Warm-Up (3 minutes):

• Arm circles

• Marching in place

• Hip circles

• Cat-cow stretches (on hands and knees or seated)

Strength & Mobility Circuit (10 minutes – repeat 2x):

• 10 bodyweight squats

• 8 push-ups (on knees, toes, or elevated)

• 10 glute bridges or single-leg glute bridges

• 30-second plank hold

• 5 deep breaths with arms overhead, side-to-side stretch

Cool Down (2 minutes):

• Seated twist (each side)

• Forward fold

• Ankle rolls & deep breaths

  
  

🌿 Travel with the Right Mindset

It’s not about doing everything—it’s about doing something consistently. Your body will thank you for even 5–15 minutes of daily movement. Think of your workouts as a way to feel better, not check off a to-do list.

Here are a few mindset shifts that help:

• “Anything is better than nothing.”

• “I move because I love how it makes me feel.”

• “A short practice can reset my mood and energy.”
