“I can’t stick to a workout plan with my unpredictable travel schedule.”

I hear this often when talking to executives and business owners who want to get in shape but just can’t seem to make it work with long work days and frequent travel.

You might have experienced the frustration of starting a workout routine only to have it derailed by last-minute business trips or endless meetings. The stress piles up, and so does the weight.

But here’s the truth: You don’t need a predictable schedule to get fit. The myth that a busy executive can’t have a strong, lean physique while traveling is just that — a myth.

The key is taking the right approach.

Here are 5 steps you can take to lessen the impact of unexpected or frequent travel on your workout routine:

1) Mindful Hydration

Stay consciously hydrated, especially when traveling. Carry a refillable water bottle and make a habit of drinking water throughout the day to keep your body hydrated.

2) Schedule Workouts in Advance
