I will be out of town for three days this upcoming weekend and will not have access to a CrossFit facility or other gym (shudder at the thought of visiting a globo-gym). This doesn't mean that we have to forgo working out. You are only limited by your imagination. And incase you don't have an imagination, don't worry keep reading... There is an unlimited number of ways you can get a great workout without a gym. I have provided a few examples that have been kindly forwarded to me by Robin @ CrossFit Regina.
Deck of Cards Workout
- Decide how many suits you will use and assign a callisthenic exercise to the suit. eg. spades=squats, hearts=pushups, diamonds=burpees, clubs=sit-ups
- The number on the card is the number of repetitions, aces can be either 1 or 11.
- Add Jokers and assign a skipping blitz of 50 skips or 25 Double Unders. Alternatively if you have access to something to do pull-ups on, do 15 pull-ups.
- Mix it up and modify as needed. Burpees can be done with or without the pushup or jump.
- Shuffling will give you a whole new workout
Eva T’s Bodyweight Workouts
Here is a few of my favourites:
- Run 1/2 mile 50 air squats - 3 rounds for time
- 10 push-ups 10 sit ups 10 squats - 10 rounds for time
- 200 air squats for time
- 100 Burpees for time
Now you have no excuse! (Your IP Address has been logged and If I hear you say you couldn't workout because you were travelling... I will check this log to confirm you knew better...and I will personally b!+ch slap you - just kidding, kind of :)
No matter where you are travelling you can get a great workout!
3-2-1 Go!
