What to do on Holiday

Hello all

I am in a bit of a tricky situation. I have just started CLX on Friday so still in my first week. I love it by the way!

My question is what to do when you have to go away? My sister is pregnant and due very soon. I live in the UK but are not from here so once they baby is born I will be going home for a few days (probably Wednesday-Sunday) to see her.

I don't know what to do about the exercises during those days. I obviously can't take my weights with me. I don't really want to stop. I do have resistance bands so I could probably take them and use them but I didn't really like them when I first tried them with CLX.

What would your advise be? Shall I do something else, use the bands or take a break?

Any advise would be appreciated :flowerforyou:

    I had a similar situation just recently. I had just finished the Burn phase then went on a 10 day vacation. I continued to exercise where I could then started Push when I came back. You on the other hand will be gone for 4 days. If it were me, I would try and get in Burn 1 & 2, then do Burn 3 when I got back, adjusting my schedule accordingly. Be sure and do something while your gone, don't want to break this awesome habit.

    Hello

    Thank you for your reply! I just realised that it is actually not that bad. I started my schedule on Friday so that my rest days fall onto Thursday and Saturday. Those are the days I usually work as I am a full time student. So If I go on Wednesday I have Burn Intervals which I can do at my mums house just using water bottles as light weights the day after is rest day and then it is Burn 1. I might just take the bands and give it a go. The it is another rest day and the following day I will be back home. So luckily it is only Burn 1 that will be slightly altered with the bands.
    Just have to make sure to not go on any longer holidays :smile:
