Spring Break is near... Where are YOU going?

Spring Break is officially less than a week away. If you are a college student like myself, you may have been waiting for this week from the start of the semester. Or maybe it was just me? While Spring Break is a break from school, work and our overall busy lives, it is not to be a break from staying healthy and physically active. Remember to stay on track with your eating habits and also continue to get some physical activities in, while still enjoying your vacation. Here is what I plan to do with staying on track...

Given the opportunity to travel over seas to Germany for Spring Break, I will be in a country that is known for its unique style of German foods and restaurants that I am eager to try. But before doing so I want to stay conscious of what I am eating and how much of it that I am eating. Now don't get me wrong I will not be eating like a rabbit but I also do not plan to binge either. Being aware of what I eat will be sure to keep me from gaining any unnecessary pounds. Who really wants the pleasure of going on vacation and gaining weight while doing so? Not me!

While in Germany staying physically active will not be that hard of a task due to all of the sight seeing and exploring I will be engaged in while visiting. The plan is to get up every morning and do in house exercises such as: planking, squats, and lunges. Anything that keeps my heart racing will help me to burn more than a few calories for each day. Since the weather in Germany may be still in the season of winter I may not be able to take a walk or run on one of Germany's famous trails but I will still make it a habit to get some type of physical activities into my adventure.

What are YOU going to do to stay on track? Are you going to pay attention to what you are eating or how about taking a jog on the beach? Whatever it is that you do, remember why you are doing it and be sure to stay inspired and motivated even while you are soaking up the sun!

Be safe while traveling and enjoy every moment of your Spring Break!

Guten Tag!! (Good Day in German)
