Traveling this summer? Take your workout with you!
BURN180, the next-generation resistance band kit, offers tips and workouts to stay fit on the road
CHINO HILLS, CA – (June 2, 2022) – Summer 2022 is expected to be a busy time for travel as people begin to make up for downtime during the pandemic. One concern that many people have while traveling is how to keep up with their fitness routines. Research published in the journal Physiology & Behavior reports that the average person on vacation gains a little weight that may linger for weeks after the break is over. Travel a few times per year, and that weight will add up! Now, with a BURN180 portable unit there is no reason people can’t take their workout routine on the road!
“We created the BURN180 unit so people can get a full work at anytime, anywhere,” shares Dan Markel, co-founder and managing partner of BURN180. “There’s no reason to gain weight or deviate while traveling this Summer if you implement a fitness routine, and we’re here to help.”
According to AAA, over 39 million people are expected to travel, starting with holiday weekends. The top U.S. destinations this Summer are slated to be Orlando, Seattle, Miami, Las Vegas, and Anaheim. Whether people travel by air, car, or another mode, they can easily take a workout device with them.
Think of packing a system like BURN180 when going on vacation this year; it’s designed to fit into a small travel bag – convenient to use by any age group and fitness level. The resistance band system offers over 200 possible workouts that can be done outdoors, in a hotel room, and even attached to your car! The portable system takes 10 seconds to set up or takedown and is easily stored in a mesh backpack, allowing people to get a complete full-body workout in only 20 minutes.
In addition to getting a great workout while on vacation, there are other things you can do to keep up good health. These include getting plenty of sleep, staying hydrated, limiting the amount of foods high in salt and sugar, or limiting alcohol consumption. Also, do as much walking as possible when going sightseeing.
Here are suggested workouts people can do with the BURN180 kit while traveling, created by Josh Loyo, the BURN180 pro trainer:
HIIT Workout
• Standing Row: Standing tall with feet separated apart, knees slightly bent. Hold onto two handles with both handgrips on the BURN180 resistance bands, and row by pulling the shoulder blades back and pinching mid-back together. Rep it out for 15 reps!
• Core press walkouts: Warm up the core by standing sideways to one resistance band. Grasp one handle with two hands and press out away from your body. Hold that position by engaging your core. Take three side steps out away from the resistance and three steps back. Repeat 8x on each side.
• Unilateral chest press: Using one resistance band from the BURN180, face away from the plate. Have the elbow 45 degrees to the side of the body and push the band out to the opposite hand, squeezing the chest together, and slowly return the resistance to starting position. Repeat 15x on each side.
