Planning is crucial

Last-minute plans to take a trip to your favorite destination can be exhilarating, but be mindful of where you’re staying for the vacation, especially if you’re a fitness enthusiast. Booking a hotel or guest house with a fitness center or nearby options to complete your 10,000 steps is essential.

Say no to 2 minutes car rides

Try to walk more instead of ordering cabs. Taking a stroll to the nearest convenience store or market can add extra steps to your day, allowing you to spend 10 minutes less in the gym.
