I’m Simon Dainton, Fitness Coach, Frequent Flyer, and author of hundreds of published articles online, as
well as many in fitness and lifestyle magazines.
This is me - before and after discovering bodyweight exercise as a means of keeping me
fit and lean
on the road, without needing to use hotel gyms or fancy overrated equipment.
My career is built on helping business professionals like you stay fit and healthy on the road, helping you
to lose fat and keep it off for the long term. In reality I'm no different to men and women like you.
I haven't always been fit. In fact, a few years ago, I was anything BUT.
In my former working life I was a ‘Suit’, just like you.
I worked long hours, for a media conglomerate who would send me on regular assignments up and down the country, by plane, train and car. I would often fly abroad for meetings with agencies, and act as a Company representative at conventions and seminars.
I was away from home for several days at a time, staying in hotels by myself, eating out with colleagues and business acquaintances, moving from one meeting to the next, and wondering if I would ever find 5 minutes to just sit down and relax.
I tried to choose hotels for their fitness facilities, but more often than not I’d either find myself too short on time to make it to the gym for a proper workout, or I’d discover that the ‘gym’ was poorly equipped and not somewhere I wanted to spend any spare time I had.
Like you, I used to think I needed to spend an hour of my busy life on a treadmill, exercise bike
or X-Trainer to make a difference, convinced that more was better, and that the more I sweated, the better the workout.
After such marathon cardio workouts I’d usually be exhausted, struggling to keep my eyes open as I battled through another late business dinner. When a busy day got in the way, I’d end up skipping the workout and sit in my room instead, flicking through the TV channels, bored and tired, unable to find the desire or the motivation to use the hotel gym.
I occasionally tried a few exercises in my room, like push ups and crunches, but back then I didn’t have a proper plan to follow, nor did I realise that crunches did NOTHING for fitness or fat loss!
Despite smiling in the picture above, inside I was miserable and fed up with the way I looked
and felt. I really didn’t think I had an alternative
to the gym.
Since then, with 8 years hands-on experience, and over 10,165 Personal Training sessions under my belt with clients just like you, I have carefully studied fellow travellers experiences and stories, as they take their working lives on the road. As a result, I know what works for business travellers.
I have made it my job to ensure that men and women like you no longer experience the same frustrations that I once did, but instead get great
results without having to step foot in a hotel gym for long, boring workouts.
I hope you enjoy using my travel workout system as much as many of my clients have, and get a great deal
of satisfaction discovering that you can still stay fit and healthy at home or on the road, in minimal time.
Here's to your future health and great body shape!
