Stay Fit on Your Next Journey: Simple Strategies for Success

Traveling for business or pleasure often disrupts our daily routines, making it challenging to maintain fitness and wellness goals. However, consistency doesn't require perfection. With a few practical strategies, achieving your wellness objectives can remain possible, even when life gets busy.

Set Mini Goals to Keep You Focused

Instead of overwhelming yourself with the pressure to achieve everything, select 1-2 goals that resonate with you during your travels. This could be dedicating 20 minutes to movement each day or ensuring you drink enough water. Focus on what truly matters to you!

Remember to Move

Movement doesn't require access to a fully equipped gym. Simple activities like walking, doing a quick workout using fitness apps, or even stretching can keep your body engaged. Even 10 minutes of movement can make a significant difference!

Hydration is Key

Staying hydrated can significantly influence your energy levels and overall mood while traveling. It’s essential to carry a reusable water bottle for easy access to hydration. If you find yourself on a plane, remember: flight can be dehydrating, so drink extra water during your journey.

Focus on Improvement, Not Restriction

Instead of striving for dietary perfection, aim to improve your nutrition. Incorporate healthy upgrades where possible; add vegetables to your meals or opt for lean protein options. Enjoying indulgent foods is perfectly acceptable—just do so with balance in mind.

Stick to Your Morning Routine

A consistent morning routine can set a positive tone for the rest of your day. Whether it’s a short walk, a mindfulness practice, or light exercises, starting your morning with intention aids in reinforcing your daily schedule, even during chaotic travels.

In summary, staying on track with your wellness journey while traveling is about progress, not perfection. By setting manageable goals, maintaining hydration, and nurturing a consistent routine, you can support your health and well-being, regardless of your surroundings. Every small effort counts.

Greater Akron Executives Champion Lifesaving Skills Through Community Efforts

Update Turning Bystanders into Lifesavers in Greater AkronIn the heart of Greater Akron, an essential movement is underway, and local executives are at the forefront of this initiative. Every year, approximately 350,000 individuals suffer cardiac arrest outside hospitals, and tragically, nine out of ten do not survive. Immediate intervention through cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) can significantly increase survival rates, yet many bystanders hesitate to act. The Greater Akron Heart Walk aims not only to raise funds but also to empower individuals with the skills necessary to save lives.A Community United for a Lifesaving GoalThis year, during the 2025 Greater Akron Heart Walk, three local executives exemplified leadership and commitment, raising substantial funds for the American Heart Association's Nation of Lifesavers initiative. Peter Geise from FocusCFO raised over $14,000, followed closely by Jim and Julie Merklin from Bober Markey Fedorovich, who collectively raised nearly $13,000, and Jim Hewitt from GPD Group with over $5,600. Their efforts contributed to a total of nearly $300,000 raised at the event, each dollar representing a chance to train more individuals in lifesaving techniques.Building a Culture of PreparednessBeyond individual contributions, the event brought together over 60 local companies, unified under the mission to double the survival rate of cardiac arrest victims by 2030. This is not just a fundraising endeavor; it’s a community-wide commitment. Summa Health System and Bober Markey Fedorovich led corporate fundraising efforts, showcasing how local businesses can make tangible differences in community health outcomes.Future of Lifesaving in Northeast OhioThe Heart Walk aims to have at least one person in each household trained in CPR, a vision championed by Samantha Campbell, senior development director at the American Heart Association in Northeast Ohio. As we reflect on the success of the event, it’s clear that the Greater Akron community is taking vital steps to enhance its health and safety, preparing itself to combat the leading cause of death in the region - cardiovascular disease.Join the Movement!Next year’s event transitions into the 2026 Northeast Ohio Heart Walk, continuing the fight against cardiovascular disease under the leadership of Dr. Teri Lash-Ritter from the Cleveland Clinic Akron General South Submarket.
