Usually when I go on vacation I join a gym. This is, however, a huge
pain in the ass. My next vacation will be for less than a week and I
want an alternative. Please advise me, what would be a good regimen
that I can do without weights in a hotel room. I will have elastics
with me, and my 110lb girlfriend (bicep curls?).

My current workout is a low rep strength building routine. I do a
three day split, torso push -> lower body -> torso pull -> break. I
insert an additional break day to alter the modulo every month or so.

What do other MFW readers do when they are on vacation? Please be
specific! Any and all advice will help!

Don't be afraid to take a week off. Let's face it, if you go to the
gym, most people are over trained.



You are making a far too broad of a statement there.


I don't think so. I have been around gyms FAR longer than you have and have trained hundreds of people over the years. From what I have seen, most people who actually get to the gym think that "more is better" and tend to train FAR too much.



Even when I was competing at a
high level in bodybuilding, taking a week off was never a problem
unless I had a show in the near future.
