The Manhattan at Times Square’s Guide on How to Maintain your Training in NYC

Traveling sometimes means dropping everything you were doing, going somewhere new, then returning home to wonder how you lost all that hard-earned fitness that you had before you left.  The Manhattan at Times Square feels that this shouldn’t be the case for our guests. So, if you are training for that big event, and traveling to NYC, how can you maintain your all-important regime?

Many of us think of gyms when we think of training: how many miles we can put between the end of the treadmill and the window we were running toward or how much iron we can push to the ceiling. However, training involves more than just this. We have broken down three important factors for your training.

Physical
