• Consider renting bikes and riding together. • If you’re traveling on business, wake up an hour early and squeeze in some activity. • Before you travel, check with your gym to see whether it offers reci- procity in areas you’re traveling to. Some gyms offer this service. Dining Out Sometimes when you are on the road, you simply cannot avoid eating out. And even when you stay home, you may have visitors who want to check out the local restaurants. Don’t just throw up your hands and resign yourself to buy- ing a larger clothing size. Here are our best strategies for sticking to a healthy diet even if you’re not the cook. • Ask the waiter not to bring bread and butter.
• Pack your sneakers and a few changes of workout clothes. • Bring lightweight, easy equipment with you, such as a jump rope and exercise bands. • Familiarize yourself with work- outs you can stream on your com- puter, tablet or phone. YouTube has many free workouts of every type—yoga, Pilates, strengthen- ing and stretching workouts, and nearly everything else you can think of. • Use the step tracker on your phone or watch to challenge yourself and your family to get in 10,000 steps each per day. • If you’re stuck in an airport, walk the terminals to get in your activ- ity. • Take the stairs whenever you can. • Plan a sightseeing walking tour with the family.
If you’re having alcohol, stick to red wine or light beer, but be aware of the size of your glass.
