A stop-over in the desert oasis for some fun and sun doesn't mean daily work-outs have to be put on hold.
In fact, with all the wining and dining going down, it may be more important to focus on a health regimen to avoid tipping the scales while on vacation.
For starters, check with the Concierge at your Hotel to determine if there is a gym or work-out spa on the premises.
If there is, schedule an hour-or-so each day to tone, burn calories, and build muscle.
In the event your lodgings do not have a facility, then snatch up the yellow pages in the lobby, and scour the directory for a gym nearby. Many major chains have day passes at reasonable rates for out-of-towners.
In the alternative, swim laps if there is a pool.
Swimming is the best all-round exercise for the whole body that there is.
When you're ready for some "alone" time, there are a handful of exercises you can perform in your hotel suite with a minimum amount of fuss, which are quite effective in re-shaping the human form.
For example, push-ups off the end of the bed (legs up) are great for the upper chest, shoulders, and biceps.
Crunches and sit-ups (curl feet under the end of the bed to stabilize your position on the floor if necessary) are sure to trim the love handles, dudes (as well as develop a nifty six-pack you'll be proud to show off poolside).
Jumping Jacks, knee bends, and leg raises off the carpet floor, will round out the work-out (with a focus on leg muscles, butt, and stomach).
By the way, if you're worrying that trotting down the strip at the crack-of-dawn may be an embarrassing proposition into the unknown, think again!
Just the other day, I couldn't help but notice that Las Vegas Boulevard is starting to be a very trendy popular spot to jog for young-and-old alike.
Slather on sun block, though.
And, don't forget to sport something trendy, eh?
Who know, you may meet Mr. Right.
As Roy Rogers once said:
Happy trails to you!
