For many, that means spending time in airports. Aside from the expected overpriced bottled water, bad chain restaurant food, and long lines for much-needed coffee, airport travel can also bring fatigue, bloating, and aches associated with inactivity. That&#8217;s not the best combination for getting into the \u201choliday spirit\u201d or \u201cvacation mode.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To combat these negative effects, here\u2019s a full workout you can do right in the airport. Complete with targeted mobility work, blood-pumping strength training, mood-boosting cardiovascular exercise, and restorative stretches, this entire workout can be performed within your terminal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"jetsetter-airport-workout\">Jetsetter Airport Workout&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong><a href=\"#1\">Why Work Out at the Airport?<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><a href=\"#2\">Dynamic Mobility<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span><a style=\"font-weight: bold;\" href=\"#3\"><strong>Upper and Lower Body Training<\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><a href=\"#4\">Cardiovascular Conditioning<\/a>&nbsp;<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><a href=\"#5\">Targeted Stretching<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><a href=\"#6\">What Will Other Travelers Think?<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"sc-namejump-anchor1why-work-out-at-the-airport\"><a id=\"1\" class=\"linkj\"><\/a>Why Work Out at the Airport?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s simple. You are choosing to spend some of the downtime around your flight moving to counteract a few of the potential downsides of travel. Travel tends to confine us to small spaces and it separates us from our regular movement practices. Fortunately, exercise has powerful effects on our bodies and minds. It can keep us moving well and feeling good.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just one bout of resistance training has been shown to increase concentrations of anti-inflammatory protein messengers in and around the knee joints. (<a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/20594330\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"181665\">1<\/a>) Moreover, this effect lasted over three hours. Since prolonged sitting is typically hard on joints such as the knees, it makes sense to counteract immobility with exercise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the psychological side, a single bout of resistance training or cardiovascular training has been associated with improvements in mood and well-being. (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tandfonline.com\/doi\/abs\/10.1080\/08870440310001613509\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"181666\">2<\/a>) If you work out regularly, you may be accustomed to the uplifting effects of exercise. On the flip side, you\u2019re also likely to notice its absence. If you could keep the exercise-induced good vibes rolling through travel season, why wouldn\u2019t you?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An underappreciated benefit of exercise is the potential boost to the immune system. Immediate and lasting elevations in immune cell activity occur after submaximal resistance training and cardiovascular exercise. (<a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/32221992\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"181667\">3<\/a>) Ultimately, any non-fatiguing workout may stimulate the immune system to mobilize its resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although these acute changes in the immune system have not been directly tied to risk of common illnesses, it seems safe to say that revving up your immune system may be desirable if you are soon to be confined with dozens of strangers on a plane.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"sc-namejump-anchor2dynamic-mobility\"><a id=\"2\" class=\"linkj\"><\/a>Dynamic Mobility<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The dynamic mobility part of this workout serves dual purposes. First, it\u2019s a great warm-up. Second, it begins to address some of the \u201cproblem areas\u201d that may become stiff or achy during prolonged travel. For this portion of the workout especially, settle into a controlled exercise pace. Find a quiet area of floor space, tune out the hustle and bustle of the airport, and then get to work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"plank-to-pike-with-alternating-toe-reach\">Plank to Pike with Alternating Toe Reach<\/h3>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube\"><div class=\"lyte-wrapper\" title=\"Plank to Pike with Alternating Toe Reach\" style=\"width:853px;max-width:100%;margin:5px;\"><div class=\"lyMe hidef\" id=\"WYL_NXf-BJMaphs\" itemprop=\"video\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/VideoObject\"><div><meta itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" content=\"https:\/\/breakingmuscle.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-youtube-lyte\/lyteCache.php?origThumbUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ytimg.com%2Fvi%2FNXf-BJMaphs%2Fmaxresdefault.jpg\" \/><meta itemprop=\"embedURL\" content=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/NXf-BJMaphs\" \/><meta itemprop=\"duration\" content=\"PT1M27S\" \/><meta itemprop=\"uploadDate\" content=\"2022-11-21T00:12:06Z\" \/><\/div><div id=\"lyte_NXf-BJMaphs\" data-src=\"https:\/\/breakingmuscle.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-youtube-lyte\/lyteCache.php?origThumbUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ytimg.com%2Fvi%2FNXf-BJMaphs%2Fmaxresdefault.jpg\" class=\"pL\"><div class=\"tC\"><div class=\"tT\" itemprop=\"name\">Plank to Pike with Alternating Toe Reach<\/div><\/div><div class=\"play\"><\/div><div class=\"ctrl\"><div class=\"Lctrl\"><\/div><div class=\"Rctrl\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><noscript><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/NXf-BJMaphs\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img src=\"https:\/\/breakingmuscle.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-youtube-lyte\/lyteCache.php?origThumbUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ytimg.com%2Fvi%2FNXf-BJMaphs%2F0.jpg\" alt=\"Plank to Pike with Alternating Toe Reach\" width=\"853\" height=\"460\" \/><br \/>Watch this video on YouTube<\/a><\/noscript><meta itemprop=\"description\" content=\"Plank to Pike with Alternating Toe Reach\"><\/div><\/div><div class=\"lL\" style=\"max-width:100%;width:853px;margin:5px;\"><\/div><figcaption><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>How to Do it:<\/strong> Begin the high plank position \u2014 similar to the top of a push-up with your body straight and supported by your palms and forefeet.

Keep your low back in contact with the ground throughout the exercise. Simultaneously bring one arm to the ground overhead and the opposite leg down to the ground. Return to the start position. Repeat with the other arm and leg to complete one repetition. This can require some coordination, so move slowly and focus on controlling the movement<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Sets and <strong>Reps<\/strong>:<\/strong> 3 x 10 per side.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Rest Time: <\/strong>Rest only long enough to transition to the first exercise.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"sc-namejump-anchor3upper-and-lower-body-training\"><a id=\"3\" class=\"linkj\"><\/a>Upper and Lower Body Training<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The main course (or concourse) of the airport workout is full-body resistance training. The first two exercises use your <a href=\"https:\/\/breakingmuscle.com\/best-bodyweight-workouts\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"181668\">body weight as the resistance<\/a>, while the final three exercises use your carry-on luggage for resistance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Each of these exercises will use an intensification technique called &#8220;elevator reps&#8221; to increase the training stimulus with limited load. Every individual repetition consists of one full range of motion repetition followed by one rep with roughly 50% range of motion and another rep with roughly 75% range of motion. Elevator reps are structured based on the resistance curve of the exercise. Each repetition forces you to spend extra time in the most challenging portion of the range of motion. The specific techniques are shown and described below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If completing elevator reps for the target rep range is too challenging, either perform the basic exercise without the intensification technique or perform fewer total repetitions per set.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"push-up-with-elevator-reps\">Push-Up with Elevator Reps<\/h3>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube\"><div class=\"lyte-wrapper\" title=\"Travel Workout: Push Up with Elevator Reps\" style=\"width:853px;max-width:100%;margin:5px;\"><div class=\"lyMe hidef\" id=\"WYL_QCFz3rx5LS0\" itemprop=\"video\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/VideoObject\"><div><meta itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" content=\"https:\/\/breakingmuscle.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-youtube-lyte\/lyteCache.php?origThumbUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ytimg.com%2Fvi%2FQCFz3rx5LS0%2Fmaxresdefault.jpg\" \/><meta itemprop=\"embedURL\" content=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/QCFz3rx5LS0\" \/><meta itemprop=\"duration\" content=\"PT1M15S\" \/><meta itemprop=\"uploadDate\" content=\"2022-11-20T23:57:48Z\" \/><\/div><div id=\"lyte_QCFz3rx5LS0\" data-src=\"https:\/\/breakingmuscle.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-youtube-lyte\/lyteCache.php?origThumbUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ytimg.com%2Fvi%2FQCFz3rx5LS0%2Fmaxresdefault.jpg\" class=\"pL\"><div class=\"tC\"><div class=\"tT\" itemprop=\"name\">Travel Workout: Push Up with Elevator Reps<\/div><\/div><div class=\"play\"><\/div><div class=\"ctrl\"><div class=\"Lctrl\"><\/div><div class=\"Rctrl\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><noscript><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/QCFz3rx5LS0\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img src=\"https:\/\/breakingmuscle.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-youtube-lyte\/lyteCache.php?origThumbUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ytimg.com%2Fvi%2FQCFz3rx5LS0%2F0.jpg\" alt=\"Travel Workout: Push Up with Elevator Reps\" width=\"853\" height=\"460\" \/><br \/>Watch this video on YouTube<\/a><\/noscript><meta itemprop=\"description\" content=\"Travel Workout: Push Up with Elevator Reps\"><\/div><\/div><div class=\"lL\" style=\"max-width:100%;width:853px;margin:5px;\"><\/div><figcaption><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>How to Do it:<\/strong> Begin in the top position of the <a href=\"https:\/\/breakingmuscle.com\/push-up-variations\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"181669\">push-up<\/a>.

Forget the lurkers. Your lifestyle is your business alone. Only you will live with the ramifications of prolonged sedentary behavior at the airport, and only you will experience the benefits of completing a light workout during your next layover or wait at the airport gate.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Assuming you want to arrive at your destination feeling fresh, why wouldn\u2019t you take a few steps to ensure that outcome? A light workout at the airport can help. And speaking of feeling fresh, if you do work up a sweat, be sure to make a pit stop at the restroom to freshen up before you board your plane. Mobilized, energized, clean, and ready for take-off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"add-a-workout-to-your-itinerary\">Add a Workout&nbsp;to Your Itinerary<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s face it, air travel is hard on the body. Fortunately, a workout that promotes mobility and a healthy pump might be the best non-pharmaceutical tonic for the ills of air travel. Until more airports start building gyms within their gates, bodyweight moves and luggage lifts might be your best options.
