[Did] A short routine version for travel days

Had a 3-night work trip last week and almost skipped everything instead of figuring out a smaller version.

Ended up packing a short list instead of the full routine:
– 5 minutes of stretching before the shower, not after
– hotel room was small so just the chair stretches, nothing on the floor
– brought the practice pad instead of hunting for a keyboard, 10 minutes a night
– skipped the walk, did the stairwell twice a day instead

None of it looked like my usual routine at home. First night I almost didn’t bother at all, figured one trip wouldn’t hurt, except it’s never just one trip!

Back home now and picked the full version back up without much trouble. 3 days off from the long version didn’t undo anything, as long as the short version actually happened.

    The stairwell swap is smart, did something similar on a trip and just did 4 flights before breakfast instead of my usual walk. Felt almost as good honestly.

    the first night skip urge is so real, happened to me on a 2 night trip and I just told myself one night wouldn’t matter until it almost became three
