Travel Brings Movement
Not every trip will demand strenuous physical activity, but it’s safe to say most excursions will bring some level of exertion — and often more than you think. Beach holidays can be pleasantly lazy, but you may be surprised to find yourself racking up the miles when you factor in all the short jaunts between key resort locales.
Add in a couple of day trips to towns, amusement parks or hiking trails, and you’ll tack on a lot of walking time, which can add up to impressive fitness gains (as long as you curtail the buffet activity).
