Schlosberg combines extensive resources with motivational advice from some of the world's busiest travelers to arm people of all fitness levels with the confidence, skills, and know-how to create their own travel fitness program. In this book, you will find

* More than 25 workouts for any location or situation

* Strategies for fitting fitness into your busy itinerary

* Resources for finding gyms, running routes, and pools around the world

* Guidance for creating your own travel workouts

* Advice for eating more healthfully on the fly
