Almost missing your flight and sprinting across the airport to board that flight really shouldn’t be the only source of your cardio when heading out of town. If you are a fitness buff like me, I rarely miss a workout … unless I am traveling. I don’t know what it is about traveling, but I lose the motivation because I don’t have my usual workouts unless I bring DVD’S, some easy to pack equipment, plus workout clothing. Frankly, that “stuff” takes up too much space in the suitcase! After talking to many friends and colleagues, I found out I am not the only one with this problem. It’s crazy difficult to stay on task and squeeze in a workout if you are out of town on business. If you are on vacation, you might feel like you earned a break from those workouts.
The Facts:
With more Americans traveling on business and pleasure than ever before, the need for improved fitness and well-being on the road has never been greater. Nearly one-half of travelers polled by USA Today felt that they were in worse shape because they lack the time or the means to exercise properly during travel.
Want more evidence? A recent study found that 65% of travelers say they exercise less while on the road.
There is a solution! JW Marriott Hotels and Resorts have partnered with The Joffrey Ballet to provide a solution to travelers who want to work out while on the road. Marriott Hotels and Resorts is launching a new series of in-room barre workout videos available ON DEMAND (!!) via the in-room TVs.
Global Brand Leader- JW Marriott Hotels & Resorts’ Mitzi Gaskins and The Joffrey Ballet’s Artistic Director, Ashley Wheater are here to tell us about it!
