Best Fitness Equipment for Travel
Sometimes body weight workouts can get old. We lose motivation over the idea of that same ol’ push-up/squat/lunge combo. There comes a time when we need to spice it up! That’s why I’ve made a list of my favorite fitness equipment to pack along in our travels. We rarely travel with anything other than our backpacks, so these items have to be light and pack up nice and tight! As promised, here are my top 4 favorite fitness equipment for traveling:
My #1 Fav: Hip Bands!

These easily add a little variety and keep that booty beach ready. I prefer the thicker bands over the thin rubber because they don’t bunch up as easily and last much longer. The exact brand I use with my clients is included in the EU link! Don’t worry, I gotchu.

Jump Rope

My personal jump rope is customized from Rogue Fitness, but I purchased a basic one for my clients and it works great! The nice thing about a general rope is it is adjustable and can be used with mostly any height. The rope from Rogue Fitness is fixed, but they have a handy guide to help you know which size is best for you. Depends on how hard core you want to be.

Resistance Bands

These bad boys can be super effective in building muscle and barely weigh a thing! If you only have minimal space, just pack the medium band or whichever you plan on using the most. They also come with a door anchor, handles and an ankle strap for plenty of variety.

Travel Mat

Don’t want to hang out directly on the hotel carpet or in the grass outside? The Jade yoga mat has excellent reviews, is super thin and folds flat, yet is still durable! Bonus: This mat is environmentally friendly and they plant a tree for each purchase.
