The Perfect 5-Minute Mobility Routine for Travelling
Whether at the airport or hotel room, stay pain-free wherever you go!
Let’s face it. Travel can be exhausting. From disorienting time changes to mile-long security lines, it’s no surprise why our bodies get cranky on trips. While working with my kinesiologist clients, I encourage them to take time off their regularly programmed exercise while on trips but instruct them to keep moving to some degree. Even 3–5 minutes of mobility training during travel days can be the difference between suffering from a sore back and hips to being restriction-free.
Sometimes it’s as simple as reconnecting with your body and reminding yourself that among the chaos, you’re still in control.
To help you return to a state of equilibrium during your travels, I want to introduce several exercises that I commonly prescribe to my clients. These are especially great for breaking up prolonged periods of sitting by targeting the back and hips. These require absolutely no equipment so whether you’re in the hotel lobby waiting to check out or grinding through a layover, keep these in your back pocket! You won’t regret it.
