Well that was excessive! Decadent dinner, drinks disappearing like Houdini and a hangover from hell. Euro summer had me on holidays, loving life sick and indulging in everything life has to offer. Cocktails. Yes! Tapas. Yes! Rosè. Yes! Entire wheel of cheese. Probs! Putting on my cute AF dress and feeling 100 in it for the entire holiday…unlikely. Holidays are a great opportunity to let the hair down, sleep, de stress, socialize, try new food and enjoy festivities and adventures. That does not, however, mean I need to return with a few extra kg’s under my belt. Staying active while away and enjoying these delights in moderation helps keep holidays as a nice break from the daily grind and not something you need to recover from. Here is one of my favorite hotel workouts to get a good sweat on and prepare for the day of activities.
