The above health news publication also mentions that jet lag, abrupt dietary changes, or prolonged sitting might make it difficult for people who travel regularly to stick to their regular schedule. But even when travelling for business or pleasure, there are strategies to maintain good health.
According to the publication, here are a few tips that may help you stay fit:

“Travelling can result in fatigue, therefore, getting enough sleep will help reduce fatigue and increase your energy levels which will result in a productive workout,” according to Village Health and Wellness Club.
