I run travel-proof performance field experiments—documented with training data, tested under real work travel, and proven in races.
Next proof event: Istanbul Half Marathon — April 19”
Who this is for
This system is built for busy professionals who travel and still want measurable fitness and body composition progress—without needing perfect weeks.
- You travel for work and your routine keeps getting reset
- You want endurance and strength without complicated plans
- You want simple rules that survive airports and hotel rooms
- You prefer evidence and repeatability over hype
- You want a system that supports real life, not “influencer life”
Small note:
Experience-based and practical. No miracle claims—just what I do, what I observe, and what the data shows.
The Road Warrior Training System
Six rules that keep me consistent across travel weeks.
Minimum Effective Day
The smallest set of actions that keeps momentum alive on travel days. How to do it: • Water early (coffee optional) • Walk on purpose (20–45 min total) • One intentional session (8–20 min) Common mistake: skipping everything because you can’t do the full plan. Proof: 2025-W46 — Fasting Through Airports
Reduce Decisions
Consistency comes from fewer choices, not stronger willpower. How to do it: • Default script: “Hydrate first. Walk on purpose. Decide food when settled.” • Pre-decide 1–2 “safe meals” you can order anywhere • Move food decisions away from gates and boredom Common mistake: treating every meal like a negotiation. Proof: 2025-W24 — Budapest
Movement First, Training Second
Steps and short sessions keep the system stable; training builds on top. How to do it: • Protect steps on travel days • Use micro sessions (5–12 min) when time is fragmented • Keep training simple on heavy travel weeks Common mistake: doing nothing because you can’t do “real training.” Proof: 2025-W26 — DC Speed Tourism
Speed Tourism
Early city runs that make travel feel intentional and keep routine consistent. How to do it: • Run at sunrise (less heat, crowds, friction) • Use safe routes: rivers, parks, main pedestrian areas • Keep it easy on travel weeks Common mistake: waiting until evening when fatigue wins. Proof: 2025-W26 — Washington DC
Strength Is Travel Insurance
Two short strength sessions per week keep you durable and support body composition. How to do it: • 2× weekly, 10–20 minutes • Full-body basics: legs, push, pull, core • Repeatable > complex Common mistake: only running, then feeling beat up or “soft.” Proof: 2025-W39 — Post-Colmar Pivot
Fasting Is a Tool
I use fasting to simplify travel days—not as a badge or rule for everyone. How to do it: • Use it when it reduces decisions and improves focus • Break the fast intentionally (protein-first) • Adjust if sleep or training quality drops Common mistake: chasing longer fasts to chase numbers. Proof: 2025-W30 — 49-hour Fast
The Road Warrior Toolbox
Protocols I reuse anywhere—airports, hotels, and unfamiliar cities.
Airport Protocol (Consistency without willpower battles)
Goal: stay consistent without turning travel into a discipline contest.
Do this:
- Water first, coffee optional
- Walk the airport on purpose (steps are the hidden advantage)
- Delay food decisions until you’re settled
- If you eat: protein-first, keep it boring
- Best for: early flights, delays, layovers, long connections.
Hotel Room Workout (10–12 minutes, no gym required)
Goal: maintain strength even when the gym is terrible.
10–12 minutes:
- Squats or split squats (legs)
- Push-ups (or incline)
- Chair dips (stable surface)
- Plank or dead bug (core)
- Rule: do it early—before meetings and logistics steal the window.
City Run Routing Rule (Safe routes fast)
Goal: remove friction so runs actually happen.
Routing rules:
- Choose parks, rivers, or major pedestrian paths
- Out-and-back beats complicated loops
- Sunrise reduces crowds, traffic, and heat
- Keep it easy on travel weeks (consistency > intensity)
Travel Nutrition Rule (Simple, repeatable, realistic)
Goal: reduce chaos without pretending travel is controllable.
Rules I follow:
- Keep the first meal simple
- Protein-first when I do eat
- Don’t punish yourself “because travel”
- Choose consistency over intensity during heavy travel weeks
Note: experience-based and flexible—not medical advice.

Partner Categories That Fit This System
Brands that remove friction from real-world performance are the natural fit here. I only integrate products that match the system and can be tested transparently—no hype, just practical use in real conditions.
- Running shoes/apparel
- Wearables (training + recovery tracking)
- Travel gear/luggage
- Hydration/electrolytes
- Hotels/airlines (runner-friendly travel)
How partnerships work
Partnerships can be structured as a short field test, a travel-week integration, or a race build leading into a proof event. Every collaboration includes clear deliverables and a simple performance summary using native platform analytics.

Work With Me
If your brand builds tools that improve focus, recovery, endurance, or travel-proof consistency, I’m open to partnerships that can be tested in real conditions. Integrations are documented transparently and delivered across TikTok, LinkedIn, and long-form field notes on this site.
What partners receive:
- Clear deliverables (content + timelines)
- Real-world testing under travel constraints
- Simple performance summary using native platform analytics
For the long-cycle experiment: Fasted Marathon Project.
