Might sound weird , but for those who fly often, do you ever get the urge to exercise on the plane? I hate sitting still for 3-4 hours in a cramped setting. Would anyone judge if one were to do push-ups or crunches in the aisle or something?

I doubt they’d even let you do this first off. Second of all, you’ll just look like a tool.

You could try doing seated stretches and exercises that don’t bother your seatmates. Get up to walk to the bathroom a couple times and stretch while waiting. Otherwise, no you can’t use the aisle like that, lol. The aisle has to be clear in case of emergency, and it’d bother people around you.

Push-ups or crunches in the aisle…..stop it

I just arrived from a 15 hours flight. I walked around almost every hour and tried some stretching and light squads in the pantry area. Maybe better to do some walking / stretching instead of push-ups (there’s not even enough space to do Puch-ups I assume).

Walk to the bathroom often. I also like to do some stretching in the bathroom, specifically spinal articulation to get some side to side movement, extension and flexion, and light twisting. Easier to prioritize stretching and mobility on a plane rather than actually getting your heart rate up

Thanks for the helpful responses! I’ll talk to the flight attendants and see what’s possible without disrupting others. This is why first class is so necessary

When you open up the overhead bins, they’re great for pull ups with your knees tucked in.

I’ll go stretch in the galley way but doing real exercises in the aisle is a bit much

Would be nice if there was space for this :)

Omg pls do this in your Deloitte shirt. No one will say anything (because they won’t be surprised)

I walk up and down the plane.

If you aren’t disrupting the flight attendants, you can squeeze in some QUICK stretches in the galley. Also walking around is mostly fine. For everyone’s sake do not block the aisle 🤦‍♀️

How do I gently encourage him to work out or move more without making it seem like I’m doing it for the wrong reasons?
