Excellent book for anyone starting a fitness regime. It’s a wonderful resource for those who travel, a quick guide to working out in small spaces. I will always take this book with me when I travel 💕

Meh... gleaned some tips from sections on healthiest menu items at fast food chains, and the stats on pools and workout facilities by hotel brand were interesting, but could use a new edition. I'd recommend the following instead: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/79... - http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13...

Lots of tips for maintaining fitness during travel. She helps with what to carry, what to eat, and how to work out on the road. I found this one at the library and Thriftbooks had exercise logs and books for fitness and travel.
