Traveling, for any reason (be it for business, leisure or if you're just looking for adventure), can put a stopper on your fitness routine. In business trips, you would often run on hectic schedules with no time for a proper meal. On the other hand, when you travel for pleasure, trying out the unique cuisine is inevitable and may push you to eat more.

So how can you maintain your figure while traveling? Here are a few easy solutions:

Plan your meals

If you're trying to lose weight, the best way to continue shedding those pounds even on your trip is to eat less frequently and count your calories. Watching what and how much you eat is important to maintain a healthy body. Include a cheat day so you don't feel like you've missed out on anything.

Start walking

Get into the habit of walking instead of using a car or public transport. It can help you burn more fats and also allow you to see sights you won't normally appreciate in a moving vehicle. You can travel at your own pace while getting a workout.

Find time for a workout

It will be difficult and you might be too busy but if you really want to maintain or lose weight, you will find the time. Even just an hour in the hotel gym can make all the difference. A couple of push ups and core exercises in your hotel room also count.
