Losing access to gym for 6 months, how to minimize strength loss?
Losing access to gym for 6 months, how to minimize strength loss?
Hi all, I've been lifting for about half a year and following 5/3/1 for most of that time. I will be traveling a lot for a 6-month period; at best I will have sporadic access to hotel gyms. My goal during this time is to maintain strength and work on cardio/conditioning.
And so, I am thinking that I should probably switch to bodyweight exercises, starting with the routine from Hybrid Calisthenics. I am not very strong (all 5/3/1 training maxes are 100lb or less) so I think I can make some progress with only bodyweight. When I do get access to dumbbells, I can do many of the movements weighted.
Are there any other/better options that I may be overlooking, both for the type of exercise (calisthenics) and the specific routine?
Any advice would be appreciated. TIA :)

How about Freeletics? Even though I never liked it that much, but the idea behind it is fairly okay for certain circumstances.
Never heard of that, thanks for sharing.
If you ever get access to dumbbell, theres are new Fitness app options now due to AI.
One of them is Dumbbell AI which is a free app that has motion tracking to automatically logs your workouts and keep you motivated.
