- Eat healthy and build ripped lean muscle with this…

Eating healthy when traveling can be a challenge, if you are not prepared. In this video, I share with you my tips for eating healthy on the road throughout the day. I show you the exact things I ate during a recent trip to Wrestlemania 31 for work. From breakfast foods to lunch and dinner options, as well as a supplement packaging trick that helps me to stay consistent with my diet wherever I am.
Most people travel (for either business or pleasure) and wind up gaining weight by the time they get home. This is because traveling usually throws people off their normal eating schedules and leaves them hungry and craving foods they don’t normally eat at times they don’t usually eat. This doesn’t have to be the case.
If you prepare a little ahead of time, you can definitely eat healthy anywhere you find yourself. One of the things I do before I go anywhere is pack my ATHLEAN-Rx supplements in little bags or single servings. The supplements provide me with a convenient and quick meal (I mix them with a banana and some skim milk) so I can get my protein in without having to sit down at a long meal. I’m usually working during my travel and I just don’t have the time to take a lot of time to eat.
The night I arrive at the hotel, I spend about 10 minutes looking through the menus for the restaurants in the hotel (as I like to hit these up for dinner and breakfast often during my stay) or for other options around the hotel (within walking distance). I will often ask the concierge what are the healthiest places to eat so I know what my choices are by the time I wake up my first morning there.
Once I locate a place that has a breakfast I can count on, I do not switch! I continue to eat there every morning of my stay. To me, it isn’t about variety it’s about consistency. I know that if I can get my consistently healthy breakfast in every day, I’ll not only feel better but I will be able to continue to build muscle while I travel without worrying about getting fat.
Sometimes, room service is my only option. While it’s often ridiculously expensive, it does provide a convenience and a customization level that some restaurants aren’t even offering. Since my body is a large part of what I do for work, the added expense is something that I’m willing to pay to ensure that I can meet my nutrition needs the right way. Not for everybody but then again, I swear that it’s possible to find something healthy at any restaurant so you definitely have options.
If you feel that you are often a slave to your nutrition and diet then it’s time to stop worrying. With the X-Factor Meal Plans in the ATHLEAN-X Training System, you can worry less and eat more. You can start eating like an athlete anywhere by visiting athleanx.com and looking into the convenience and effectiveness of the plan.

best advice ever: "if you don't enjoy what you eat you will never be able to stick to it." thx Jeff.
cop holding your bags: can you explain me this?
You: just my supplements
cop: sure, come with me...
*puts on latex glove*
hahahaha xD exactly what i thought xD.
@@radamelfalcao2415 SPREAD EM!!😂😂
"I have never come back from a vacation weighing more than when I left" - Jeff, RESPECT ... thanks for the challenge and motivation to help maintain my goals this break!
Looks like he left his chewed up gum on the bench while he filmed.
I feel bad because I'm eating ice cream as I'm watching this.
Chocolate bar :(

LinkEX Yeah, I saw it. When he was bringing up a comment from his other video I got really worried he was going to say mine lol.
Sigfee
Lol.
The easiest solution would be to just stop eating junk food or limit it to a small amount each day, then you won't have to worry about it anymore :P
Is that taste really worth the bad conscience (And progress-impeding effects)? I mostly refrain from it with that in mind.
To use Jeff's slogan:
In order to look like an athlete, you gotta eat like an athlete!
Sigfee well for me a tomato, onion, and swiss cheese sandwich here and I'm the fat guy. :/
Another option for quick, healthy and cheap meals on the road: tuna fish. Buy the meal-size packages that can be ripped open by hand, without the use of a can opener. They take very little space in your luggage. At your travel destination, buy a loaf of bread and maybe a favorite vegetable topping (bell pepper, cucumber, tomato....). If you don't have a knife and cutting surface in your hotel room, clean the vegetable, remove the seeds if necessary, and eat it whole, as a side dish to the plain tunafish sandwich. If you don't have a refrigerator in the room for the vegetables, buy only enough each day for that day's meal. You'll easily save money over room service and eat far healthier. Use the saved money to take your wife or girlfriend to her favorite restaurant when you return home. She'll order whatever she wants. You, of course, will have the plain tunafish sandwich. :)
i am looking for the leprechaun comment, where is it?
Me to xD
Me too
$100 is like a month of food for me.
Andréas Remis the forgot to tell you that he's rich
zadufitness Even if I was rich, $100 for the "convenience" of room service is absurd.
Just made a grocery haul video to show what I can buy for $227! SO MUCH! :D
stop being poor
***** The only healthy place I know for sure is my kitchen. I do not eat out.
great video jeff! I've been traveling for 7 months now and getting my nutrition right has been a struggle but this video will go a long way to fixing that. loving the content, keep it up!
Can't put stuff in a baggies like that with powders going across states or by airports while traveling. They assume its some kind of drugs. So I bring the whole tubs.
Nahhh man, i prefer to hold my protein in my ass. In little pellets
MrOnionCock as in semen
You can if you check your bags
Jardin Brook i snort fucking protein powder.
Thanks for this video I'm on the road often and find eating right is the most challenging part..
always spreading some awesome and useful knowledge!! Thanks Jeff
I live 30 mins away from San José.... I'm still mad that I couldn't meet you in person Jeff
Great Video! I bagged my RX protein powder the same way when I went to Miami. Big bags of white powder laying around the room in Miami
Wish I followed you years ago. Extremely helpful, and relieving to learn healthy eating on the road is possible. Thanks!
I'm on the road again next week. Thanks for the intel, perspective and motivation!
Awesome video man appreciate it!
Great advice Jeff. Im loving the AX-1 program by the way, i've been doing that and the T.N.T and have been seeing great results! Thanks!
I think one of the most important things as Jeff said is to enjoy what you eat. Because if you will enjoy eating healthy and clean i don't think that anybody would like to come back to bad nutrition ^_^
Thanks jeff for all that you do ,your awesome passion exudes greatness...and when you love what u do and wanna share with others is where the blessings are thanks again for the knowledge keep feeding me please..
Jeff if you get pulled over and cops see this supplement bags,you gonna have a bad time.
Nik Ka cavity search allert :D
Jeff can flex his biceps and they’ll say “oh yea they’re supplements for sure.” Haha 😂
excellent travel tips. thanks!
dear mr cavaliere first i would like to thank u for your videos i find them invaluable especially when in my country nobody knows anything about weight training and so the internet is all i have to try and learn as much as possible i have been weight training for a long time and i have found recently a great love and passion for powerlifting and strongman and without much effort i bulked up to about 250 lbs muscle mass so far without the aid of steroids im not that lean and for now i honestly dont care much about it but i do want to be as healthy as possible though i consume a lot of food it mostly consists of decent food or i believe its decent food lots fruits lots of veggies lots of water chicken soups oatmeal so on i train 3 days a week with heavy weights finishing with conditioning exercises something to get my heart rate up twice a week i sprint on stairs and every day i walk for 45 or an hour but although everything seems fine for now i still find myself fearful of future health risks associated with being to big heart failure kidney failure liver problems sleep apnea etc im dont think i will be able to stop training its pretty much the only thing that gives me purpose in this life i just want to know is there a way i can be big strong and live a healthy life thank u in advance
Thanks so much this was really helpful
thanks for the advice Jeff
Thanks, a lot of good useful information.
Thank you for the tips.
Jeff, thanks for sharing these tips. As always I respect your opinion highly because it is clear that you live the lifestyle your encouraging others to live if they wish to meet their health goals. For me, I'm considerably overweight and have issues with discipline. I'm binging on your videos prior to starting my next attempt to make lifestyle modifications that I can live with. I'll get it together this year.
P.S. Thanks for not being a douche ... that's common on CZcams and especially in the fitness community on CZcams.
Very helpful, thanks!
I live in SJ and I've never been to Whispers and used to live downtown in college. Im gonna have to check it out!
This is great information.
One time I brought a ziplock bag full of creatine to Miami and got questioned by TSA
hahaha first thing that came to my mind
Did you manage to get it through okay?
great vid jeff 👍👍
thanks for the education thanks Jeff
The healthy options r always there its not difficult! All I know is if I'm going on a 4/5 day trip and eating out most of the time,I'm eating whatever I want! Your not goin to lose them gains in that amount of time! It obviously depends on the shape that ur in but for me I'm eating whatever I want!
Good tips! 👌
Hey Jeff, I live in the area and know the place, love it! I do the same with my protein shake blends and I bring my bullet to mix up the best shakes. Steal cut oats are the best and I found a great instant one at Costco which is really easy to heat and eat.
dang et whispers is just a few blocks away from me! can't believe you were in san jose a few days ago
hmmm true with all the travelling I do , smile smile ...
This is a great video and your points are definitely valid (not new information right?)
You make a very valid point in enjoying what you eat. I found that as spring / summer approaches, growing your own veggies on our patio makes me that much more invested in my own nutrition.
SO far, we've planted sweet potatoes, Red and Green Peppers and red onions as well as a ton of fresh herbs.
Have you ever heard of anyone being against supplementation all together?
Amazing video as usual, Jeff. The thing in countries that aren't as developed as the USA is that they don't understand this kind of stuff at restaurants, they don't even have whole wheat bread many of the times, let alone listening to the customer about not using the heavy dressings. I hope more and more people in the world begin to acknowledge healthy eating because it can get a challenge like it or not.
Good and practical tips Jeff boss. In India being a vegetarian you often undergo difficulties when you are traveling. But I liked how you summed it up. Thanks once again.
I've used your advice from day one, eat nutritionally dense foods, be hypo-caloric and workout = results I'm currently carb cycling and I'm getting leaner by the day, keep the videos coming brother!
What is carb cycling ? I'm a young blood who is new to this.
+zKrypToh I've never heard the term carb cycling. But, I'm guessing that he is just taking in less carbs.
Jeff your channel is excellent. I would love to chat health and exercise with you someday on my show. Very good info.
This guy is the best there’s is when it comes to bodybuilding!
Working at Apple, I have access to great food. But I can't be spending money when I can bring my tupperwear. Like you, gotta have my oatmeal in the morning, with a scoop of Mango Peach Whey Isolate. Even when I cut carbs, oatmeal still has to be part of my diet. Makes me full and satisfied the rest of the day. Cheers! Glad you had a great time in my hometown of San Jose.
Good advice thank you. I take it one can't order healthy meals at any fast food restaurants then? (I wonder what your opinion would be on that.)
But Jeff what about meal frequency? I'm leaving for the weekend on a trip and I am wondering how often do you eat on the road? Every third hour aproximatly or how do you do?
this is a very good videao and i have seen all of your nutrition based videos. I also have seen the ones about supplements and my request is the following: Can you make a video naming the bad substances in supplements ex whey protein. Thanks Jeff!!
all too true i used to travel alot for work for a week every 3 weeks so it made it hard to keep a good healthy eating routine until i just stopped trying eat a a differnt place each time just learn about your food and then mix and match till you get what you need.
Jeff - Just FYI, if you come back this way, a great breakfast place in the San Jose area (specifically Campbell) is 'The Hash House' on Hamilton Ave.
I LIVE IN SANJOSE! Gaaaa, Would've been So Amazing To Meet You!
Thanks for the tip. Deployed away from home and trying to get my 44yr old self back on a routine AND eat healthy in the chow hall. Good tips. Tracking you on FB now. Many thanks.
Have some fun you're on holiday!
All thumbs up Jeff. You only have to look at you to know what you say is correct. I do follow your suggestions and it has made life easy when out and about. Restaurant eating is easy if you follow your tips. It is easy and it works. Booooo to those nay sayers I say.
Almost 800k subscribers?! Wow I remember when you had around 60k subscribers
mofo288 Heck i remember when he only had about 7000 subscribers. Awesome to see how much momentum he has gained.
Mohammed A now he's almost at 3Mil deff the best most legit fitness channel out there !
He has 3 million now
Mohammed A Almost 4 million now!
SillyTube 4M+ now
Jeff makes a good point here that most people cant really live like those who are usually in the best shape usually eat the same thing day in & day out near enough as I guess it takes a lot of guess work out and many ( not all) guys like Jeff I would imagine and like I am also see food as more of a fuel that is needed and necessary rather than a lovely pass time and hobby eating lots of creative & tasty food, not to say a lot of lovely tasty food cant be healthy but I bet you find most guys at a certain physique level are by definition creatures of habit and consistency eat sleep & train, you want to see food as a lovely thing to enjoy consistently your probably going to have BF level which will reflect this!!
Jeff, what can you recommend for someone that is lactose intolerant as far as supplementation? I've tried some that "do not contain milk", but are manufactured in factories that have milk. I find that as I get older (now in my 30's), I am more sensitive to lactose. Thanks in advance.
Jeff knows his diet. You are so smart, man!
Hey Jeff! First I want to say I'm so glad to be the first to comment! Second do you think you could make a video similar to this for students that live with their families and your the only one in your house who really watches what you eat? I don't mean trying to change the diet of the entire household but in my case I don't have a complete say in what my parents bring in my house. I enjoy healthy foods but it's not always available to kids my age and it's not always easy with that kind of temptation. So please think on it and love your stuff!
You are 4th to comment.
Shit
you should mix the protein and the water/milk when you are have to drink it? or you can have the protein shake already mixed all day long?
Where do the RX Supplements fit in when eating healthy anywhere, like do you take them before the meal, within the meal, or after the meal ?
That's is exactly what I do when I'm traveling or on vacation. I have been on cruises with familiy'' and you know how people go ballistic just eating (Buffet) all day long! I take my supplements and stick to my exercise routine and I have never put on anyextra wieght while on vacation. Yes it can be done!!!
Wish I could've sat next to Jeff and Sting eating dinner at the Ritz Carlton in San Jose during WM weekend
Rad he came to San Jose . Where is his home location?
My gym is next door to the Whispers in downtown san jose!
awesome, stay ripped my friends
Hard to apply some of this on a family vacation. The fam doesn't want to eat at the same place the whole time.
AH MAN YOU'RE LUCKY! WrestleMania 31 was pretty damn awesome, wish I was there in attendance!
Theres always WresteMania 32 in TX
i love san jose.. thx for whispers
But what's cheaper? If i want to spend the least amount of money possible is it more reasonable to rely mainly on restaurant foods or supps and meal replacements?
This is what I do, wherever I go
with my love oats
Throw in protein powder and you got proatmeal
Abdulelah mohammad هلا بالعيال ههههههه
Ali Ritchie وشو حشيشه
HMTraining protein powder with oatmeal has to be the most disgusting combo ever invented :)
hallowurm Yes but it makes a great cement. Lol..
Please help when I do preacher curls with my bicep with my elbow laying on the lopsided pad my biceps get a pump but I also feel a stiffness of the muscles getting worked iguess its like between the very top of my forearm all the way up through my bicep. Is this normal to feel a little work going into your upper forearm or no please help idk if im doing it right
Bro you are one of the best channels your programs are bomb dude! You're up there next to Elliott Hulse I remember when you first started it wasn't even this channel it was JDCav24
MrOnionCock Mike Chang 2.0 next to Elliot Hulse.
What's the deal with peanut butter? I love it, I eat the natural style. Is this ok to eat in moderation or just one of those foods high in fat to avoid overall?
This is me when I'm on the road for work as well. Always looking for an applebees, because I know I can get my macros there.
Hey can you show me how to put the supplements in the bag again?
How long can I expect those containers to last? I am a senior and high school and my pay is limited, I just want to see how it fits into my monthly expenses
Nice, Jeff. Are you the trainer for the WWE/WWF?
Hey Jeff - This is great! Can you do another on the road, in your car for the day, or gotta eat in 5 minutes video. I'd love to know if there are any bars, snacks, meal replacements. I am always aware of stuff I can grab for the day that would spoil if it was over two days and then other stuff that I can keep in the hotel room. Obviously the tough parts are the proteins and the perishables, especially fresh fruit/vegetable. What do you think about shakes with blended vegetables and fruits with protein powder balanced in an insulated 32 oz container? Other questions: Do you believe it matters what ratio of Omega 3 and Omega 6 you eat? Would you agree with 1-1.2 grams of protein, and .35 grams of fat per pound of target body weight? Why do you need to eat any starchy carbs, are they important or just for enjoyment and satiation? Do you think it makes sense to drink a lot of water before and during meals, to reduce volume of food eaten? How do you manage your water. All of these questions are for when you are trying to gradually cut, especially if it is when you are trying to cut the last 3% of body fat? I love your infor. You are definitely the very best on the web! Keep at it. Thanks for all you are doing. Any and all success is VERY well deserved. You are providing an awesome service to the world.
Actually, I do have another question: I have a persistent shoulder injury. It doesn't hurt that much, but just never goes away and as it feels better, I try to lift a little more, and then I have to give it a break. What are the ways that you can work parts of your body and maintain it or even, preferably still build it, while recovering? I know you sometimes, just have to give it a rest, but I think people would really love a series of video's on how to maximize the overload on surrounding muscles, while minimizing the load on the joint, so it can heal? (Form, contraction, high reps/low weight, reduced range of motion, etc.). How much would it help to do super intensive flexes at max contraction? I am especially trying to make sure to hit chest, but as you know with the shoulder, it freakin attaches to everything.
Another great video would be: What if you want to keep growing everywhere and you do a balance set of workouts, BUT you want to maximize the focus on one or two areas to kind of 'catch up' and balance it out proprotionately for either aesthetics or performance. How do you make sure you giving that muscle every thing you can possibly give it and not overtrain it. I am especially interested in how you can help it along, by either stretching, or doing extremely light work on it on off days, or use it in an athletic way on off days. Should you do high wt on one day a week and then high rep on the other day? What is the proportional benefit of eccentric vs concentric?
HELP & THANKS a million!
What do you think of WM31 Jeff? Good tips once again Jeff. Cheers.
Question.... can someone lead me to an explanation why supplementation consistency matters and it's effects?
shogrran Depends on what supplements you use. My understanding would be that what you eat/do consistently shows. So if you eat one bad meal that isn't going to ruin your hard work. Protein used consistently should increase your gains, but used once every month or not even wouldn't have that effect for example.
Tehstool For example in my case I only take protein on the days I work out. I dont take it every day. So for example I go on a company trip for 2 days straight, I don't take protein 2 days straight as well. Is that not supposed to be?
shogrran You take whey protein after working out because your muscles need it to help rebuild. If you aren't tearing the muscle then you shouldn't need as much. You still are going to want some protein because your muscles are still rebuilding on your rest days.
I struggle sometimes finding the right food to eat while traveling for work. I forgot you can just ask people where good food is...
Jeff, i was wondering if you could do a video about organic food vs unorganic food. Is it necessary to go organic? What are the advantages? I really appreciate it.
Going through these video backlogs and saw this comment. Unless you already know by now, there is absolutely no advantage to organic foods. In fact, they can in some cases be worse than conventional. I wouldn't worry about them one way or another, but I tend to stay away if I have the choice.
Hey, Jeff! I am a huge fan of your work and even more so the WWE! A while ago I tweeted you and WWE about how awesome it would be for the WWE superstars to be trained by you. How long how have you worked with WWE? Hopefully it's not a one time thing...
He sounds like Ross Geller from friends
Wow, Jeff sounds really congested in this one.
Another good tip:
Buy the Grilled Chicken Wraps at McDonalds (in Europe they are pretty good at least). And you can find a McDonalds pretty much everywhere.
I eat two and get about 50-60g of Protein with a good amount of lettuce, tomatos, etc.
I always ask them to prepare it without the greasy sauce.
Ahi and asparagus. Yes please!
i seen his all videos and i try that and because of that i got 6 pack abs and i am a 13 year old boy
Are you supposed to have supliments on rest days as well
What is the 3 supplements he has in there
Jeff, I was a DT and almost made it to college. I didnt make to college due to a severe head injury. I weighed 320 ibs and am down to 260. I always had mass but im low on money and need a way to lose weight and gain muscle mass. Do you have any advice???
Another great video jeff thank you! I have a question, I am a local fuel delivery truck driver I'm usually gone about 10-16 hours from the time I leave home till I get home, I am able to microwave some breakfast when I get to where my truck is parked but after that I often and heat food up, this has made it very hard to eat the healthy food I need. What do you suggest as far as cold meals I can keep in a lunch box and eat on the go? Thanks!
Brent Cambern when you come up with an idea please pass it on I am in the same situation as you....I am trying various things but nothing fool proof yet if I come up with something I will let you know as well
raymond smith I will if I figure something out lol I'm not about cold chicken and rice and just can't figure out what else to eat cold that tastes good haha
Brent Cambern are you in the same truck everydayor do you slip seat?? The reason I ask is do your meal prep....leave them in your lunch box and I rigged up a flat metal plate on the turbo side behind the radiator with a couple of buggies on it and I take my meal in the plastic Tupperware container and put it on their between stops (30-45 min sometimes between stops) and pull it off to eat it when I get set up at my next stop and I'm waiting....and repeat the process through out the day with the other meals that you have prepped.....the only issues I've encountered is Rain Hinders the heating process lol I live in Texas.....sometimes the Tupperware gets really nasty on the outside and the weather effects the results depending on how cold it is outside and where you are located it's not fool proof cause depending on what you pack sometimes the centers are cold but it's a starting process and when my truck goes to the shop for repairs or PMs the shop guys and DOT were always questions what that metal plate is till I explain it and the shop has thrown it away a couple of times
raymond smith haha I've thought of that before tried putting it on the dash to warm cuz I live in Florida and it's usually hot but it takes forever lol I'm in the same truck it's a tank wagon not transport though so I usually only stop for 10-20 mins on most stops sometimes longer but not usually
Jeff,
There is a Whispers on the US Army base in Seoul, Korea. The menu looked identical to the one you put up in the video. Definitely a good place to eat clean at. Anyways, I wanted to ask your take on eating coconut oil. I eat it sometimes straight out the jar to stave off hunger for an hour or so before my next meal. Since you are talking nutrition, I wanted to put this topic out there.
I travel abroad for a living, so I too have to take my supplements etc with me. If I have to repack them into unlabelled containers (baggies etc) then I go to their respective websites, download and print out information about them e.g. ingredient statements, uses etc. I take that information with me just in case I have problems with baggies full of 'generic white powder' when at Customs of the host country and/or returning home.
What do you think about ligament tape etc that stuff work?
Rock tape or kinesio taping with McConnell technique is used amongst lots of PTs. It works to an extent. I work as a pt tech and some patients greatly benefit from it some don't.
Well I broke my knee and tore my tendons and ligaments at the same time in the same knee and after my knee wasn't broken and I was still injured my therapist used it and truthfully I felt barely and difference so I would just get a nice brace for you problem like one that supports it and feels good for you.
Hey Jeff what do you think of Vegan diet??
How about when your on vacation ?
i would really like it . if you can make a work out for truck drivers.
