Blacksmith513 Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 I'm off to Colorado Tues-Sunday. Thursday-Sun I'll be in a hotel with a gym... Not sure what they have there for equipment but i'm sure its nothing special. Whatever i do will be like 30% effort. There will be lots of beer, bourbon and beef consumed, so I need to do something to offset it. I'm tempted to bring my Vulcan V2 plus the thumbscrews and training grippers for a change and Wrist Developer then doing the Deck of Cards workout for conditioning.., but i'd be devastated. if they got lost somehow. Just looking for ideas on what you guys do.. Or maybe I should just take a rest week. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stranger Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Grippers are light and travel well. The hotel gym may have plates so you could bring a loading pin and some attachments. Have fun and drink too much! (Yes, you read that right) 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know they are replaceable and I have two of each but it would ruin my trip if they got lost. I will drink too much. I’ve cut way back this last year but I’ll make up for it this week.

I'm not sure about that. They might not let you carry it on but I don't know. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamTGlass Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 I wouldn’t train at all - enjoy the trip and start fresh when you return 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then, completely rest. Be careful, but this is a method to overshoot for some gains too after resuming coming back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good idea, i'm going to try and get in a session tonight after work if I have time. 7 hours ago, AdamTGlass said: I wouldn’t train at all - enjoy the trip and start fresh when you return Thanks. I might just do that, its going to be a long while, barring sickness or injury until I get another rest.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
