Staying fit while traveling?
Hi,
I am a Vanderbilt student conducting primary research for my Entrepreneurship class. My group was tasked with coming up with a business plan that solves the pain points of a certain market segment. A few of my group members interned for consulting firms this past summer, traveling Monday-Thursday. They realized that it was hard to stay in shape and effectively train in the hotel gyms without the luxury of a personal trainer like they were used to at their home gym.
What experiences have you had with staying fit while either on the road or working crazy hours at your home office? Is there anything that you wish existed to help with staying fit? Would a sort of "Uber for personal trainers," or a platform where you could request personal trainers to come to your hotel or office gym at any time of day be appealing to you?
Please let me know any and all thoughts you may have.
Thank you for your time, Vanderbilt Senior
You don't need a trainer. I'm actually dumbfounded that this comment is coming from a college student. What fucking college student only works out with a trainer? I know many UHNW people personally and professionally (8/9 figures) and I don't know anyone who had a personal trainer in undergrad. Maybe the occasional session but not for daily workouts.
Having a spreadsheet or target goals each week does help. There are a ton of apps and websites that help with this. But anyone who follows the rule of "do a little more this week than last week" is going to be fine.
