Quick little workout while checking out the facilities at my hotel in Evanston. Pretty typical for a hotel gym - treadmills, stairsteppers, stationary bikes, and a set of dumbbells, no pull-up bars or barbells - but with a little determination it's plenty good enough for a few days. Snatches were power snatches but went up fairly easily, push-ups felt weak.
Thought it might be handy to compile some stripped down, hotel-friendly workouts. There's a lot of good sites out there for inspiration, like Crossfit Virtuousity.

Nice improvisation.
Where are you now?
I'm in Evanston at the Neuroecon meeting. Jumped into an ultimate frisbee game with the guys from Duke yesterday, and realized very quickly that I am really out of aerobic shape...
Make sure to submit a review of this hotel fitness facility at http://www.HotelGymReview.com (launching soon).
Thanks!
