Rep Power: 208 | | | What would you do if you didnt have access to weight equipment for 2 weeks on a trip? I am going on a vacation for two weeks on the 15th of May.
I won't have access to a weight room the entire time.
What would you guys do? I want to get some kind of training in.

I would train hard and then take it easy for the two weeks. Seriously, are you going to bring a barbell with you? I would eat and drink a lot, is what I would do. Maybe have some fun here and there.

Rep Power: 33 | | | Yeah, take a little time off, and if you want to exercise, play some sports or something. Don't forget that even top athletes take a good break every so often. |

I want to get some kind of training in. | You could take some stretch bands with you, and do some minor stretching techniques when you have time; this will do your body good, baby! And, there is nothing wrong with doing some light body weight exercises if you have the space and time.
I take off one week every 6 to 8 weeks regardless, just to allow a total body recovery--it does the body GOOD once in a while, brotha!  Just think of it as a recovery period and go have a good time for petes sakes!
You're a kid (  ), now go and act like it and go have some fun! Or I kick dat @ss!

Rep Power: 208 | | | I'm going to Lake Tahoe with a few friends. I will see about finding a YMCA down there I suppose, and read into body weight training some.
Also I will be sure to be completely overtrained going into the trip so that I can just recover the whole time, because IF i make it to the YMCA it'd only be once.

Rep Power: 9 | | | In my humble opinion you should try and have the majority of the time off and rest your body. You could do a few odyweight exercises if it is a concern.
Reasons being it can be good for your body to have a break as when you come back you may be able to shock your muscles back into growth and break some plateaus if you have any.
I am having two weeks off at the end of June as I am going on holiday, a few bodyweight exercises should be sufficient. I will be going crazy and consuming a lot of alcohol!
