In the Featured Sites sidebar of this blog, there’s a link to Isobel De Los Rios’ amazing weight loss program, The Diet Solution. Yeah, I make a little money if you buy her program but even if you just sign up for her free e-letter, she delivers so much good stuff – her freebies are better than most paid programs. And her paid program is entirely awesome!

So, she sent me an email that details a couple of workouts you can do if you’re away from home. Check out her web site Here but read the email, too. And sign up for her FREE 7 day weight loss e-course!

PS – Craig Ballyntine, who gave Isobel the workouts she talks about in her email, is a friend from Toronto – the man behind Turbulence Training. Yeah, that’s in my Featured Sites sidebar, also. Didn’t even know that they knew each other until I got this email. Check Turbulence Training out, also. Links in the sidebar. Here’s Isobel’s email.

Hey Al,

It’s really a good thing many great workouts don’t require much equipment at all since sometimes I just can’t make it to the gym, no matter how hard I try.
This morning’s workout actually required NO equipment at all.

I must give credit where credit is due. The workout I did this morning was given to me by Craig Ballyntine, Men’s Health Contributor and the author of Turbulence Training.

I had the pleasure of meeting Craig at a few different Fitness and Nutrition conferences this year. Since I consider him one of the “best of the best” in the industry, I asked him if he could write me a workout. Not just any workout, but one I could do in my hotel room. I explained to him that I would be traveling a lot, but wanted to do a workout that was quick and would still kick my butt. Oh, and it couldn’t require any equipment.

Instead of telling me to leave him alone, he very generously gave me 2 workouts: one I could do in my hotel room and one I could do in the hotel gym.

He was right. They both were “kick butt” and left no room for the excuse “I don’t have a full gym to go to.”

I’m happy to pass them on to you:

15-minute hotel gym superset workout

A1) DB Split squat – 10 reps each leg

A2) DB Chest press – 10-12 reps

B1) DB Row- 10 -12 reps

B2) Stability Ball Leg Curl – 8-10 reps

I repeat each superset 2-3 times and then finish off the workout with intervals on the bike or treadmill. (If I’m at home, it’s always on my spin bike.)

Bodyweight Circuit in Hotel Room (exactly what I did this morning):

Prisoner Squat – 20 reps

Close grip Pushup – 20

Forward lunges – 15 reps per side

Mountain Climber – 10 per side

Split Squats – 15 reps per side

I completed this circuit 5 times this morning. When I first started doing it a few months ago, I could only get through 3 times, but I’m now up to 5 and I swear my legs and shoulders are definitely leaner since incorporating this workout into my routine.

There you go. Another 2 workouts to add to your list of great workout routines. I still have so many other favorites but these workouts are great, especially when equipment is limited. To check out more of Craig’s awesome workouts, you can find him at
