Easter holidays

Padzster

The kids will be off school soon for 2 weeks of Easter holidays. Now I normally go to the gym 5-7 days a week, and since the new year I've stopped doing non-stop cardio and instead I've been alternating with stronglifts 5x5 and other strength exercises. This alongside using MFP has been successful for me and I'm very worried about undoing all the good.
Given our normal routine, I know that I won't be able to get to the gym other than weekends when hubby is around (so neither of those days can be rest days), so what else can I do during the week to keep up the fitness? I've got the 30-day shred DVDs but I'm not sure if they'll be enough to keep up the strength side of things. I've had a look at the free part of Freeletics as well, but am apprehensive... it looks pretty scary actually!
So... my question is, are there other people in the same boat and do you have any successful routines etc that you could recommend please?

It's tough when you can't get to the gym and you're lifting! I have a 2 & 4 year old so I understand. I have a kettlebell DVD I love and do that when I can't get to the gym for a few days. It's not expensive (you have to buy the KB though) and there's actually 4 different DVD's included so you can mix it up.

Any way you could go once over the weekend and then one evening during the week after your DH gets home from work? 2x a week is enough to maintain your strength, especially just for a couple weeks. That would probably be the best thing to do, but 2 weeks off, you won't lose all your muscle that quickly anyway.

Good luck!
