5 easy ways to work-out on Christmas vacation
Leaving the country for a well deserved holiday this winter? Don't worry we got you with Iris & Ily's 5 easy ways to work-out on Christmas vacation. Because being on holiday doesn't have to mean not working out. Exercise is always a great mood-booster, and it shouldn't be something that you forget about when you go out of town!
There's an uncontested amount of joy surrounding vacations — the promise of warm weather (depending on where you're going, of course) coupled with an opportunity to take a break and escape. And while all of these experiences are integral when it comes to planning your next trip, it's also important to incorporate some wellness into your travels.
5 easy ways to work-out on Christmas vacation
1. Go on a morning walk
2. Turn pool and beach time into a workout
If your destination has a place to swim, you can get a full-body workout and enjoy your time in the sun with a few pool exercises. Jump in the water and warm up with some underwater jumping jacks, then alternate between high knees and treading water.
3. Sign up for a 5K, a 10K or community walk
A creative way to feel like a local instantly is to sign up for a race or community walk. You'll work up a sweat, meet a few residents, and your course may grant you access to roads you would never have seen.
4. Take a bike tour instead of a bus tour
5. Get day passes at a nearby gym
See if you can find a gym close to your vacation destination and try to log at least 30 minutes in the mornings. Bonus points if the gym overlooks the street or the beach :-)
