How to Get Ripped on the Road (CNN EXPOS-)

Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1

Staying ripped when on the road can be quite a challenge. Between not having your usual food and not knowing what to do when you don-t have access to a gym to workout, you can quickly fall out of shape if you don-t have a solid plan. In this video, I share with you a recent interview I did with CNN anchor Richard Quest to reveal the best tips for staying fit when traveling without needing access to a fancy gym. Before getting started however, it is important to realize the things that happen to your body when you travel for long stretches at a time. Prolonged sitting (as can happen when sitting on a long flight or in the car) can cause your hip flexors to shorten and get tight. When this happens, it can set off a cascade of adaptations that can lead to a condition known as anterior pelvic tilt. When you have anterior pelvic tilt you develop weak glutes, a tight lower back, weak abs and as mentioned, tight hip flexors. You need to address each of these areas if you want to reverse the condition and fix it before it really sets in. I did a complete video on this and placed a link in this one to help you find out the step by step plan. That said, when you find yourself in your hotel room, the least you can do is try and get moving to at least counteract all the time you just spent sitting as you traveled to your destination. Here the opportunities are endless, if you only open your eyes and look around. The hotel room can be a phenomenal gym if you are willing to move just a few pieces of furniture around and use objects for different purposes than you may have originally imagined. For instance, the coffee table is instantly convertible into a step up platform or place for box jumps. Trust me, it-s strong enough! Move the desk chair out of the way and you have a place to do inverted rows or chinups to hit those hard to hit biceps and back when not having access to a gym. Even when a hotel does have a gym, they are often times understocked and full of simply cardio equipment leaving you with little options but to head to your room to get your strength work in. This is where the hotel luggage rack comes in particularly handy! This piece of equipment goes ignored by most, that is unless you were hoping for somewhere to bang out some of the best bodyweight exercise in existence, the pullup. The luggage rack allows you to perform pullups without much trouble. Just be sure to test the sturdiness of it before committing to the first rep! While some may be a bit on the shaky side, I have yet to come across one that couldn-t support my weight. Bottom line, when working out on the road there truly are no excuses. You can stay ripped on the road if you just open your eyes and expand your workout playbook. The ATHLEAN XERO program is a complete bodyweight workout plan that will help you to build muscle in just 6 weeks without using any equipment at all. You can find this program at and start building ripped, athletic muscle from anywhere. PART 1 CNN SPECIAL - PART 2 CNN SPECIAL

Thanks Jeff loved the video. Im looking forward to the follow up. I want to ask what way would you integrate burbpees into a on the go lifestyle workout would it be apart of your overall workout, or would you reserv them for a cardio day?
Also with this how much of a diffrience can a 30 min workout a day, lets say 4 to 5 days a week, will have on overall health?
To that for those who want a bit more devlopment how many days should we try to get a 1 houre 20 min or more workeout in while being on the go?
In all what im loooking for is a blance of health, maintenance and devlopment?
I hope it wasn't to much and hope to hear back from you. Thanks again Jeff!

Is it really safe to do chins on a luggage cart? I cant tell you how many times I was tempted to do this but was nervous to attempt it. I am always trying to find creative ways to do pulling exercises in my hotel rooms. Typically I hang my gymnast rings from the bars on the top stair railing, but sometimes there's nowhere to hang them from. The other day I was forced to throw a towel over the door and do them that way. which got the job done, but obviously not as good as a pullup bar.

Question for Jeff or anyone - I'm 15, very skinny around 115 pounds - I work out daily, abs and jogging about half a mile or a mile everyday, and switching off legs and arms/chest/back everyday. About how much protein do I need per day to make this effective? Or anything other than protein that also helps? I'm pretty sure I'm under how much I should be getting. Any advice or a rough amount would be good

all this clinton news network crap from the commenters makes me feel like Rush Limbaugh is trying to get in shape by using Jeff's vids. I dislike Fox News Network, but if Jeff didna segment with their morning team I wouldnt dislike his video upload. Get over yourselves. Jeff brings us quality fitness info and advice.

Hey Jeff! As a student who sits in class for 6 hours a day, my hips and legs can start to feel pretty tight. I'm sure you've made videos incorporating methods, but could you do a full video on how to stretch out and warm up the hips, legs, and back after a long day of sitting? Thanks for the great videos as usual

So do I need a lot of WEAPONS to do AthleanX? I don't want to join a gym. I want to workout at home. More convenient and saves money. I have dumbells and a bench. I'm used to doing HIIT workouts 3 days a week and lifting on the days in between. Basically, I have everything I need to do P90X3 so am I set?

Hello Jeff I'm Arturo from Peru, recently operated on my knee by an injury to the meniscus and I'll have my leg in plaster for a month and the doctor told me to rest, but I would still try to train to take advantage of the free time What type of training you recommend for me?

From the way he talks, his gestures and posture he seems like the kind of guy that will get really loud and agressive if things don't go his way.
As a videographer it was very satisfying to see Jeff's gym in a well produced video

i am so regret for that i have missed this viedo 2 weeks ago, because i just come back from vacation and find nothing to do in the hotel room. if i watch it early, i can do more in the hotel than just 90 burbee jumps per day.
