Voting opens in 24hrs, in the meantime I am sharing with you my Jetset tips. 


Traveling is something that comes with our lifestyle.  You can go on a business trip, travel for pleasure, or take your family for a vacation.


With a busy travel schedule, remember your daily exercise routine?          



Every gone away on that dream holiday and returned a few kg heavier. It happens to all of us, especially if you are jet setting around the world, just stepping on the plane your fluid retention goes up.Which means the scales go up and you can begin to feel a

little sluggish.




When you can look in the mirror and see health vitality and a fit toned slender body coming back at you, you have won. It doesn’t matter what the scales say, it is really about how you feel from the inside out not  the number of the scales.




 Try not to define yourself by a number, who

cares what that number is. We are all different, sizes, height, bone density.
Muscle weighs heavier than fat, it is a fact. However staying fit and
can be done, with a little planning ahead.
healthy while you are jet setting around the world for work or play


 So while you are travelling you may increase your weight a little so it is very important NOT weigh yourself on your arrival home but contine to move and eat healthy best way you can while on your vacation so you can enjoy the  enjoy the fullness of your  trip.





           

My Travel Tips for Jet setting.                                              


                                                           

Tips to keep you fit, healthy and feeling happy and amazing while travelling so you can enjoy the fullness of you holiday.






Week prior travel



I have eaten very clean all the way to LA choosing the vegan option with Humus and fresh raw vegetables sticks and fruit served by ordering ahead.  

Pre-order Vegan Option with your airline.


                                                                                                             



The day of travel and for the plane




  1. Important to prepare all your food the night before just like you would normally.
  2.     Pack solids rather than liquids as you cannot get through international security with fluids
  3. .   As a tip, you can make a green juice/smoothie to take to the airport but be prepared to have this finished by security.
  4.     Eat as structured as you can be leading up to your flight, and the day before, knowing that the day of travel wont quite be the same.
  5.     Even though you have ticked vegan, don’t ever rely on plane food to be exactly as you anticipated. Pack your back up plan, see below.
  6.    Take a food bag specifically for your healthy nutrition and tea cup with plenty of herbal teas, so you can sit back relax with all your comforts                                    








What food & drinks to pack for the plane

                                    

I travel a lot and when I was competing in Fitness Comps in my 20’s over 20 years ago I learnt fast never to trust plane food, I did this every time and still do today.


                                                                                                


  • Pack vegan protein powder, in a container you can easily mix –see my shakers


  • Pack your green tea sachets or green tea bags + camomile tea for sleep time


  • One Punnet of strawberries are great for sweet tooth moments


  • Dried dates, but not too many, depending on length of the flight, 5 dates should beplenty. 


  • Mix of nuts & seeds, goji berries


  • Water can be tricky, I always try to remember to buy a litre once through the security, as you just never seem to get enough water on the plane in to your body.


  • Pack a throw away container of Fresh greens, I take spinach leave as you can roll the dates and almond in the spinach.


  • If you are eating protein, pack 1-2 chicken breast pre-sliced or
    diced. (fish too smelly)   
                                                                 
  • Don’t worry too much about carbs as you are sitting and relaxing, you don’t need the heavier carbs, but if you are travelling with your hubby or partner, you could pack acontainer of sweet potato chips pre-baked the night before with rosemary, coconut oil and Himalayan salt. 
    This would be a good idea when you are on a a 12-hour flight.                                                                   


  • Have a sweet tooth- you could always pack a raw vegan protein ball




Eliminate jet lag tip- I have tested and tried this and it works well to step off the plane feeling energised.



·     

  • No bread, carbs, only wat fruit and vegetables, load up on water and herbal teas                                                                                   
  •     Listen to meditation music and meditate
  •    Stretch on the plane and move every so often. Find a spot and practice a few easy yoga postures, even if it means just rotating your ankle joints around ten times one way and ten times the other, wrists, and shoulder joints. This will create blood flow and energy.

Healthy Nutrition Meditation and Sleep is the key
    
  • Set your time clock and time zone best you can straight away so
you can trick your mind you have switched time zones.

  • Continue the gym or yoga session, walks while on your next vacation or business trip? I personally like to make yoga and exercise part of my travel.  I mean why stop just because you are travelling, on holiday or working. 
  • Remember to google ahead of your trip where the closest gym,  Yoga or Bikram Hot Yoga Studios are. Book in your time after your long flight, to boost your energy.
