I am wondering what type of exercise you do when on the road, especially if you're a full time RVer. Any information would be extremely helpful. Thank you!

We are senior citizens and we walk every morning regardless of where we are. My wife strives for 3 to 5 miles. I am content with a mile or two.

Getting out and sight seeing with walks plus any hikes and just the activity of getting things in and out of the back of the pickup, and keeping water in the tanks and getting rid of grey water for showers is good exercise for me. Walking is our major exercise. Trip Report DesertHawk - Las Cruces, NM USA 2005 16' Scamp Molded Fiberglass Travel Trailer Side Dinette, Front Shower & Head 2009 White Ford F-150 Reg.

It provides exercise for the brain & body! We love to walk and with looking for caches we get to see places that even locals are probably not aware of. The geocaching gives a nice walk an added purpose. 2007 Holiday Rambler Admiral 30 SFS with lots of good stuff!
