The following workouts were previously featured on this blog over the past year or two, but since I receive a lot of requests for travel or living room workouts that don’t require equipment, I figured it might be nice to have them all in one place.
Though these workouts don’t require any fancy gym equipment, they’re still sure to make you sweat!
Enjoy!
- Legs + Cardio Circuit Workout: Target your lower body with this sweaty workout.
- Outdoor Run/Walk Workout: Take your workout outside and mix things up with this quick outdoor workout!
- Sweat It Out Cardio + Abs Circuit Workout: This workout combines plyometric exercises with exercises that target the core for a total body workout.
- Jump Rope Lower Body Workout: No jump rope needed! Simply substitute jumping jacks for the 60 seconds of jump rope to complete this workout without any equipment.
- Can’t Stop, Won’t Stop Circuit Workout: Substitute squat jumps for the box jumps in this workout and prepare to sweat!
- Heart Pounding Cardio Workout: Substitute squat jumps for the box jumps and complete this workout outside in between 10-minute bursts of running or speed walking.
Question of the Day
- Do you work out on vacation? If so, what is your favorite way to exercise on vacation?
I have a pretty laid back attitude about working out on vacation. Though walking around and sightseeing in a new area is my favorite way to stay active on vacation, my favorite vacation work out is definitely running. It’s a great way to explore a new place and I’ve had some of my best runs on vacation!

forget travel, i’m doing these tonight!
Hey Julie!
Do you think it might be possible to do a post where you break down what each of these exercises look like (example- squat\crunch, burpee, plank)? I’ve heard of them but have never done an exercise class where they break the, down.
Thanks!
Running on vacation is the best!
I went to Hawaii earlier this year with my bf and not everywhere had gyms so I did tabata workouts in our hotel room. 20 sec on 10 sec off for four minute rounds
Oh one legged burpees? Eeeeek!!!! 🙂
I do workout whenever I travel. I usually pack a resistance band with the door attachment – easy way to get a resistance workout in a hotel room. Plus, you can run anywhere! 🙂
This is a seriously awesome collection of workouts! Definitely saving this for later!
I always try to get whatever exercise I can while on vacation. We always do tons of walking around, exploring, while on vacation but sometimes it’s not enough. Hotel room workouts are easy and can be done first thing in the morning so you don’t have to worry about it during the day.
Running on vacation is always great! You get to sightsee AND get in a kickin cardio workout!
I find it sooooo hard to workout on vacation. I like the idea of hotel room workouts because, as one other person commented, you can get it out of the way in the morning and not worry about it. I like it in theory, but on vacation it doesn’t always happen that way!! But…since I really don’t like going to hotel gyms I will keep these room workouts handy. Running is great in a new place but funnily enough I seem to slow down (sometimes to a walk) to see something new and interesting! I’m not the world’s greatest runner.
I’ve used a lot of your workouts on vacations and LOVE them! Thanks for the round-up.
I already had a bunch of year saved onto my phone because I love your workouts! My favorite is the Can’t Stop Won’t Stop, that thing is intense! And I actually just did the cardio and abs workout yesterday because I was short on time. It was another short and sweaty one! 🙂
Bunch of *these
I definitely try to get at least one run in on vacation. Not so much for the exercise aspect, but to experience a new place by myself for 30 minutes or so. I love having that time to think and take things in that you may not even pay attention to in a group.
Great post, so many people drop their fitness routines just because they are traveling! Body weight workouts are awesome, even when not traveling : ) My favorite way to workout when traveling is to go on a run just for the purpose of exploring a new place.
I absolutely LOVE workout tips such as these. Sometimes, people think they NEED a gym when all you really need is yourself! Thanks for the awesome tips!

Your jump rope and lower body circuit is my absolute favorite! I do 2x a week and am always sore for days (in the good way that lets you know you worked!)
We usually get plenty of walking in on vacation so that always counts towards exercise, but I’m with you and I fit it in when I can- if they’re group exercise classes then I’m more likely too. I find just exercising sometimes very de-motivating. The gym atmosphere helps me so much.
I always love your workouts! These are great!
These are actually enormous ideas in on the topic of blogging.
You have touched some fastidious factors here.
Any way keep up wrinting.

it for you? Plz reply as I’m looking to design my own blog and would like to know where u got this from. many thanks
Really like these! Especially since I’ve been loving body weight workouts lately. Thanks for sharing. Pinning so I can get em later 🙂
These are a nice little set of info graphics, i am a massive fan of body-weight workouts and calisthenics, a local park, climbing frame or the outdoors are the only things in life you need to get in good shape 🙂
For those people on a spending budget a home gym installation is the
perfect answer. Not only do you actually save a great deal of
money but additionally, you get to spend more moments with your friends and family.
In order to ensure being successful you’ll want to obtain the correct exercise equipment and set a timeline for your exercise sessions with home gym exercises
Your style is so unique in comparison to other folks I’ve read stuff from. Thanks for posting when you’ve got
the opportunity, Guess I will just book mark this
blog.

Hey! This blog post was featured on Sparkpeople.com!
Area rugs!! They are so valuable in transforming the look of an area.
I think it’s definitely a great idea to bring sneakers, a jump rope, resistance bands,and a swimsuit and goggles or to rent bikes and to go around the trails or town that way, or to take the opportunity to go scuba diving, hiking, or horseback riding, and to sign up for lessons for something you might have always wanted to explore. Or to bring workout dvds with you and to put them in the laptop, go running on the beach or powerwalking, swim in the pool, etc.
