How do you all stay healthy when traveling to client site? Hotel gyms are small and food options are tough. Any tips?

Small gyms work just as well as big gyms if you use them efficiently

I go to a local gym - hotel gyms are typically underwhelming remodeled closets.

Also make a stop at grocery store and keep healthy options in client fridge (or get mini fridge in hotel room and bring some of my own prepped meals)

I have a national membership at both Lifetime Fitness and LA Fitness. If neither are close I negotiate a short-term membership at a local gym (most are willing to work something out)

Book a hotel that is not too close to client site but still walking distance. You will force yourself to walk everyday for a good 30 min round trip.

That's interesting, hows the options on there?

If you have class pass find gyms near hotel and use those instead

Just get a membership at a local gym, many chains have national memberships so if you don’t only want to pay for that location you can find a gym near your home with a branch around client site and get a membership

Since your typically downtown when traveling. YMCA has a national membership program and I typically like their gyms

Watching what I eat, I've recently started to explore more vegan spots and I try to work around an intermittent fasting schedule which keeps me more active.

Walk more, drink less. Also check out men’s/women’s health for workouts. Many body weight exercises are fantastic!

Stay within calorie deficit when you travel . If you have limited exercise, adjust food and alcohol intake too proportionately and make up when you get home .

I also make sure to walk everywhere and climb stairs in office as often as I can .

Hi Guys, Please help 🥺
I've joined ibm during Feb 2022 and assigned to a project on March.
I'm ABAP developer but doing data validation production support for one of the big client.
I don't like the work and also can say my tech lead is not happy for my deliverables.

Need advice on how to get a release from the project which I've worked for 4 months. And also wanted to know would this impact career in IBM?..


Thank you.

This is more of a rant than anything but advice is welcome. I’m so fed up with my manager micromanaging everything.

I’m at a loss for what to say to them because I’ve tried repeatedly to fix this to no avail.
