Lots of my clients are travelling this month and they have all asked me for a great workout you can do in a small space (airport lounge perhaps!) or in a hotel/park, etc. The great thing about this workout is that you don’t need a gym or any equipment and you can still get a huge benefit. This workout incorporates legs, arms, core, and cardiovascular work.

Make sure that you are well hydrated if you are going to workout outside. Especially during the summer months, drinking extra water is important in order to prevent dehydration and heat stroke. Aim to drink at least 2-4 litres of water per day. I also like to consume lots of hydrating fruits and vegetables during hot summer months. My favorites are cucumber and watermelon! If at any time you feel dizzy or lightheaded, stop what you are doing, lay down flat on your back and take a few deep breaths.
