Should you workout on vacation? 💯 *Here are some options for you depending on how you like to vacation: 1. Partying vacation You’re the type of person that wants to go to new places and completely let loose. If this is you, I want you to do a light upper-body focused strength training workout every day focusing on no more than one set per muscle group. This will help you to recover from the night before and give you a nice pump to show off at the bars/clubs/concerts for your next night’s adventures. The key word is “light”. 2. Exploring vacation You’re the type of person that wants to see all the new sights and go on daily adventures. I want you to focus on relatively short, medium intensity strength training workouts. Think half the intensity of your normal workout. This will keep you on your routine while traveling and give you that extra post workout feel good energy as you explore the new city. Choose one leg exercise, one pushing exercise and one pulling exercise and do two moderately challenging sets of each every day. 3. Mental reset vacation You’re the type of person that is mentally exhausted from things in your personal or professional life and see vacationing as a mental reset. If this is you, don’t worry about the gym at all. It will be there for you when you get back. I want you to get out of your hotel or Airbnb and go for long walks every day. Find new coffee shops or restaurants to explore within walking distance and go check them out. Do you workout on vacation?

The scapular pull-up *Technically I’m using a chin-up grip (underhand grip), which works as well.

Technique Tuesday 🏋️‍♀️ Bench Press 1. Grip the bar with your hands outside your shoulders. 2. Drive your feet into the floor and clinch your glutes. 3. Get your chest up and try to break the bar to turn your lats on. 4. Lower the bar to around your sternum with your elbows flaring out at a 45 degree angle. 5. Drive through the heels of the hands to push the bar back up and over your shoulders. #techniquetuesday #fitnessmotivation #benchpress

The Deadlift 🏋️‍♀️ The deadlift will build full body strength like nothing else. There is something deeply challenging yet equally rewarding about this movement that will force you to use your bare hands to grab something heavy off the floor and pick it up 💪 #f#fitnessmotivationdeadlift

Back squat 🏋️‍♀️ This classic lift will build full body strength while targeting the quads and glutes. 1. Keep the bar over the midline of the foot. 2. Squat deep while trying to keep a neutral spine. 3. Create tension and stability in your back, hips and core while using your breath to lock everything in. #squats #legday #glutes
