Upper body strength when traveling
Are there any good dvds that have good upper body strength work without weights?

Nothin' better than different kinds of push-ups ...

I've done some of the P90X upper body workouts using just a resistance band.

I was going to say pushups, too. Sometimes I throw a resistance band in my suitcase.

I think Ilaria's Pushups and Abs Plus dvd would be excellent for this purpose. She does a wide variety of push-ups that use the muscles in slightly different ways. The first time I followed it I felt it all over my arms, back, core and chest the next day. Also it is about 30 minutes and I am guessing you would want something short while traveling.

My options are:
Bring 1# weights and do the upper body segments of Squeeze Original. Bring tubing and do Leisa Hart's Sexy Arms or Power Half Hour: Arms

Don't forget about planks and tricep dips.

Use your suitcase for biceps curls and lat rows.

Be creative, make up your own with your bands.
just about anything you did with weights do with the bands
