(And I usually manage to choose the wrong answer.)<br /><br />Most of my hotel room moves have already been listed. I tend to keep it simple, with planks, pushups, and squats. If I get a few sets of those in, I'm happy, plus I don't pay for it when I return to the gym later. :)<br />Cammy@TippyToeDiethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00547787031318303521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-15185062709965682162013-02-20T13:57:51.125-05:002013-02-20T13:57:51.125-05:00I recently started taking a water aerobics class a...I recently started taking a water aerobics class and have been surprised how much there is to do that doesn't even require those floaty weights. My faves are the rock and roll and the side variation. Great for the abs. I'm fluffy enough I don't need a weight belt but if you do, a noodle might work. Basically you float on your back, pull your knees to your chest, and shift your weight forward until your legs are straight and angled behind you, as if you are doing a plank. It's hard and great for the abs. The side variation is a little easier. You tuck your knees up then extend them at an angle to the side, alternating after each tuck.

I would use dvd's indoors and my sil (exercise freak) tells me to do 'stair steps' if there is one step available. I can think of one other 'indoor activity' that is supposed to be good cardio workout and you can do it lying down- but I'll refrain from naming it. ;)Dianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15717758915060629723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-76635353569435570922013-02-20T09:18:54.315-05:002013-02-20T09:18:54.315-05:00Congrats on your progress to date and more than th...Congrats on your progress to date and more than that-your determination!<br />As far as the away from home workout-you could do bench presses on the desk/bed in the hotel room? And lunges and wall squats too. I saw an article once where they recommend you fill Ziploc gallon bags with water and use those as weights when doing the squats etc. Could work when you're away from home.Julie Nhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07943670716328293230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-90393079996831879282013-02-20T08:30:25.658-05:002013-02-20T08:30:25.658-05:00Treading water can be a good exercise.

You could also get a pool noodle (or some floaty thing like that) and push/pull it under the water with your hands for little upper body workout. And there's always walking in circles (as fast as you can) for a set number of laps and then switching directions. You'll get good resistance when you go against the current you made. Oh, you might be able to do some of your kickboxing moves in the pool, too (at least if you fall over there's no fear of hurting yourself in the fall).<br /><br />I can't remember if you've tried yoga before (I bet you have) but you could set up a pretty good little yoga routine that (at most) would ony require a mat. And you don't have to do the crazy stuff, a half an hour of sun salutations that take you through forward folds, chaturanga pushups, and up into down dog then into warrior 1, then 2, then back to standing can really get the blood flowing and stretch the whole body.<br />JLVerdehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02814082484881071454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-5044480142464973252013-02-20T07:16:02.759-05:002013-02-20T07:16:02.759-05:00Sorry your foot is bothering you still.
