We don’t blame you if you believe vacation should be all about getting well-deserved rest and enjoying maximum relaxation. This is a great way to go about it and exactly what vacations should be. However, you might want to make one small adjustment and keep working out and doing exercises. Here is why.

Avoid Regression

Even if you just miss a week or two of working out, your body will notice. You might experience a loss of muscle mass, and you will definitely have a harder time getting back on track later. But if you continue your routine, even at a slower pace, none of that will happen.

Feel Better About Indulging

Vacation isn’t a proper vacation without some junk food, sweets, and a few cocktails. If you work out during vacation, you won’t feel bad for indulging in these things. You might even get encouraged to take it up a notch.

Enjoy Working Out More

During your everyday routine, working out can seem like a burden. You have to set aside valuable time for it while often doing it after hard day of work. While on vacation, you won’t have to worry about any of those things. You will be relaxed when working out, allowing you to enjoy it more and be more productive.
