I'm on the road...

I'm writing to you from an old hotel room
in Central Newfoundland. This place is no
5 star resort by any stretch of the
imagination, in fact it could be the
ideal set for a cheesy 70's porno flick LOL

But I don't care because I'm on week long
motorcycle road trip with my girlfriend
Patricia and we only need a place to crash
each night while we are on the road.

Over the next week we plan to ride through
Atlantic Canada; going across Newfoundland,
Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward
Island, and back again.

Anyway the reason I'm writing is to let you
know that tonight July 30 we are having our
live Total Fitness Bodybuilding Talk Show at:

http://www.LeeHayward.com/tv

I've got a mini laptop here with me and it has
a built in webcam so as long as I have internet
access we'll be good to go.

So if you want to participate in
our live chat show and discuss your plans and
strategies for building muscle and losing fat,
then be sure to tune in tonight July 30 at
8:30 pm eastern time and we can chat then.

We'll that's it for me, I've got to go fire
up the bike and hit the open road. I'm looking
forward to chatting with you later tonight.

Working Out While On The Road...

I am pretty excited right now because tomorrow morning I'm leaving to go on a week long motorcycle road trip across Atlantic Canada with my girlfriend Trish. You can see all the details of our trip at:

http://www.leehayward.com/motorcycle-roadtrip.htm

When most people travel they let their bodybuilding and fitness routine go to the wayside, end up skipping workouts, and eating junk.

But it doesn't have to be like this...

Now I admit that traveling does pose a bit of a challenge for sticking to your routine, but with a little planning ahead you can avoid the pitfalls and still make good progress.

In our case we have packed high protein meal replacements and protein bars. Protein supplements can be really helpful for keeping your protein intake high and filling in the nutritional gaps between meals when you are on the road.

We've also packed our gym clothes and sneakers so we'll be able to workout in the hotel gyms along our trip.

Simple planning like this will allow you to still make progress while you are traveling so that when you get back home you can pick up where you left off and set some new personal records in the gym, rather then having to make up for lost progress.

Adding Bodyweight Squats To Your Leg Workouts

This is a great way to help increase your work capacity and stimulate more muscle growth in your legs. In between each set of your normal leg exercises, do a set of bodyweight squats. Just 10-15 reps is plenty. What this will do is provide more muscle stimulation and extra work load for your legs without really draining your strength for your other exercises. This way you can easily get 100+ bodyweight squats in over the course of your leg workout and really help to spur on some new muscle growth.
