Vacation Exercises That Don’t Require a Gym or Equipment

Vacation weight is a real problem.  You’re eating good food, and skipping your usual gym routine. We all know how it works, you go on vacation and you feel like since you don’t have your gym membership and the equipment, that you should just take the whole week off.  WRONG.  It is so much harder to get back to the “real world routine” if that includes having to drag yourself back into hitting the gym, too.  Take 20 minutes to knock out this circuit 3 times in the hotel room before you hop in the shower, because these exercises don’t require anything except your own bodyweight.
