Weeks of work travel wreck routines — unless the routine travels too. Here's the system our long-stay guests swear by.
Use the 24 hours
Shift work makes 'gym hours' meaningless, so our fitness centre never closes. Nights before early calls, a 20-minute session at 8 PM beats a skipped 5 AM plan. Cardio plus a simple strength circuit covers a full week's bases.
Take it outside
The Bear Creek corridor through Muskoseepi Park is close by — summer trail runs, winter brisk walks with grippers. Big sky, zero treadmill boredom.
Recover like you mean it
Finish sessions in the hot tub, hydrate (northern air is dry), and let the 5:30 breakfast handle protein and fuel. Fifteen consistent minutes a day beats a heroic Saturday — especially on rotation.
