Blogger Makeover Update: Linda Grant – Working Out on Vacation

By Barbara Baez @BarbaraMBaez · On April 20, 2012

Blogger Linda Grant (NYCSingleMom.com) is one of our “Makeover Bloggers”, and she’s been working out with trainer Christine at Lucille Roberts 5th Ave. in Manhattan. Here’s her latest update…

One of my toughest hurdles to overcome is trying to maintain a fitness routine while on vacation. In the past two weeks, I have been on two business trips. Admittedly, I should bring workout clothes and use the hotel’s fitness center. Unfortunately, with my daughter accompanying me, that was not doable since I certainly couldn’t leave her in the room alone, and bringing her to the fitness center was also not an option since she loves testing out the machines. Needless to say, a child trying to use a treadmill is a safety hazard.

As I was visiting Baltimore and Philadelphia, both very walkable cities, I felt that walking umpteen miles was an okay way to stay active. But what to do about keeping up the weight training?

As I have read in so many fitness magazines, I decided to stop at the local drug store and pick up large bottles of water to do my upper body workout. Sounds so productive, right? And it was. I can’t say that I was working at my peak, but at least I did maintain a semblance of a workout, which made me feel good that at least I tried.

As I am off on another business trip next week, my goal is to find a fitness video to download!
