Normally when I go on holiday, I don’t train.
If I’m away for 4-5 days or a week?
I’m quite happy to have the break 😂
But I’m in Mauritius for longer this time, and I actually WANT to get a few sessions in.
Not because I’m trying to burn off last night’s beers.
Not because I’m worried about losing progress.
And definitely not because I feel guilty for eating more than I normally would.
I just know that after a few days of doing very little, I start wanting to move again.
So…45 minutes in the gym.
Get a decent session done.
Then straight back to enjoying the holiday.
And I think that’s an important distinction.
You don’t NEED to train on holiday.
A week off the gym isn’t going to suddenly undo all your progress.
But if you’re away for a bit longer and you fancy training?
Do it.
It doesn’t make you obsessive.
Sometimes you just genuinely enjoy training and feel better for doing it.
