I have to go to australia for a few weeks next month, and there is a good chance that theres not going to be a gym to uses at out location. I
am planning on taking my blast straps and my bands with me. What can I do to minimise my strength loss when I am there? I was thinking:
Upper body: suspended pushups: for a rep record
Band tri ex
band push ups/ dips
pull ups
Lower body
One leg box squats
pull throughs
Band GM’s
ab wheel
Natural GHR’s
This takes care of 2 workouts a week but what about speed workouts? Maybe sprints and plyo push ups?
Thanks for your time

Well, I can’t help you much when you are there, as I don’t know Australia, but while there you could incorporate some strongman stuff. I’m sure there is big shit that could be picked up or thrown, hell even if it’s a boulder or kangaroo! There are tons of Highland Games and strong man articles floating around this forum, you could even PM Brad Cardozza.
As for the first few weeks tho, might I offer overtraining for two weeks prior? I did that before a month long vacation, and when I came back after a week I was actually lifting heavier then I was before I left! Just a thought.
