CrossFit on the Road
Written by Danielle Dufrene

Picture this: Turin, Italy in December (freezing cold), the sun is
beginning to rise and the Italians are strolling to their favorite
café for a shot of espresso. A typical morning in the city centre with
the exception of the crazy girl sprinting from one end of the
cobblestone street to the other, jumping on and off the benches,
squatting several times only to repeat the sequence over and over
again.

Yes, you guessed it the crazy girl was me. Crazy as it may be I
managed to get several workouts in while traveling in Italy for
business. The conditions were far from convenient, but with
creativity and determination, I made it happen.
Consistency can be a challenge when you are on the road, but I am here
to say there are no excuses. The beauty of CrossFit is that it
requires very little equipment to get the job done.

Here are a few workouts you can do when on the road, with or without a gym:

Dumbbell complex
50 reps for time of the following:
Deadlift
Hang power clean
Front squat
Push Jerk
(Rx’d 25# women/35# men)

Dumbbell swings & burpees
21, 18, 15, 12, 9, 6, 3 of the following:
Dumbbell swings
Burpees
(Rx’d 35# women/#45 men, or as heavy as you can go.)

Dumbbells & a treadmill
4 rounds of the following:
400 meter sprint on the treadmill
DB complex x 5
Right arm hang power clean to a thruster
Lunge right, lunge left with right arm locked overhead
Repeat with left arm
Both arms hang power clean to a thruster
Lunge right, lunge left with both arms locked overhead
(Rx’d 25# women/35# men.)

Bodyweight
100 reps of each
Push-ups
Sit-ups
Squats

These are just a few. The possibilities are endless. The next time you
are on the road don’t feel defeated; see just how resourceful you
can be.
