Out of Town, No Problem … Take FE With You!
How Virtual Sessions Can Drive Your Results
Our personal training clients at Functional Elements Training & Nutrition in Creve Coeur, MO travel … a lot.
They travel for business. They travel for family. And they travel for fun.
But while those trips are exciting, they also come with a hidden cost: lack of consistency. Because let’s be real—airport delays, hotel check-ins, and packed schedules don’t exactly scream “perfect workout routine.”
That’s where Virtual Training comes in. Think of it as your built-in safety net. It keeps your routine steady, your results on track, and your body moving—no matter where life (or the next flight) takes you.
At Functional Elements, we call it “FE Anywhere.” For many of our clients, it’s become a non-negotiable part of their training routine. They go out of town, they keep their appointments—virtually. Suddenly, “travel” no longer means “setback.”
Even better? Those sessions don’t just protect your progress. They boost your energy, improve your mood, and make the entire trip better.
Here’s how it works—and why it could be your new secret weapon:
FLEXIBILITY THAT FITS YOUR LIFE
Adaptability is one of the biggest advantages of virtual training.
You’re no longer tied to the rigid schedules of a gym—or to whether your trainer happens to be in the same city. With FE Anywhere, you can connect with us regardless of geography, time zones, or gym hours.
Workout Anywhere: We’ve trained clients in hotel rooms, on beaches, at relatives’ houses, and even outdoors with nothing but bodyweight. Location (and equipment) aren’t barriers—we’ll make sure your workout still challenges you.
No Commute Required: No drive time. No traffic. Just you, your trainer, and your workout. In fact, some clients love the convenience so much that they stick with virtual sessions even when they’re back home.
Personalized Scheduling: Most of our clients simply keep their normal time slots when traveling. But if your trip throws a curveball into your routine, we adapt. Early mornings, late evenings, or short-notice changes—we’ll make it happen if you’re committed to staying on track.
Because at the end of the day, virtual training isn’t about being “remote.” It’s about staying consistent and driving results.
CONSISTENT ACCOUNTABILITY & MOTIVATION
One of the hardest parts of traveling isn’t the flights or the busy schedules—it’s staying accountable to your fitness routine. When you’re away from home, it’s all too easy to let workouts slip. And when workouts slip, consistency slips. And when consistency slips, results slip.
FE Anywhere helps make sure that doesn’t happen.
Regular Check-Ins: Your sessions are scheduled per usual, and your Functional Elements coach is still expecting you—just like they would be if you were at Functional Elements.
Progress Tracking: Because we stay connected, we can still track your workouts, nutrition, and overall progress. You’re not just “getting through” a trip—you’re continuing the journey and building momentum.
Motivational Support: There’s nothing like having a familiar, encouraging face pop up on your screen. Our coaches bring the same energy, motivation, and support virtually that you’ve come to count on in person.Consistency is the real key to results, and FE Anywhere keeps that key firmly in your pocket—even when you’re hundreds of miles away.
CUSTOMIZED WORKOUTS FOR ANY SETTING
One of the biggest perks of virtual training? No excuses.
You don’t need a fancy gym—or even much space—to get an effective workout. Our coaches are pros at making the most of whatever’s around you.
Bodyweight & Minimal Equipment: At Functional Elements we design challenging, highly-individualized client programs ... and that doesn't stop when a client is traveling. From effective hotel gyms to nothing but bodyweight, you'd be surprised how tough (and fun) a virtual workout can get.
Creative Adaptation: Stairs, chairs, walls, even the beach—if it’s around you, we’ll find a way to use it. Any environment can become your training ground with a little creativity. One client even knocked out a full lower-body workout in a hotel room using nothing but a chair and their carry-on suitcase.
Goal-Driven Adjustments: Traveling for work and short on time? We’ll dial up the efficiency. Need recovery after long flights? We’ll focus on mobility. Chasing strength, endurance, or conditioning? We’ll pivot your session to keep progress aligned with your goals.
With FE Anywhere, “no equipment” doesn’t mean “no results.” It just means we get resourceful—and you stay consistent.
TAKE IT FROM GEORGE
The benefits of virtual training when out of town are clear and compelling. This modality offers unparalleled flexibility, maintains accountability, and connects you with world-class expertise—all without sacrificing safety, comfort, or results.
Take for example our client, George, who has been working with us for 25+ years. Traveling to his beach house in Florida, which can be for shorter or longer durations, doesn't mean the workouts go away. Through FE Anywhere, it just means they change a bit, and his Functional Elements' coach adapts the program to the environment.
But don't take it from us, take it from George himself:
"Virtual training allows me to continue my training regimen without disruption in order to keep my fitness goals intact. It’s easy! The seamless use of technology provides high quality training, which are adapted to my accessibility to equipment and space. The workouts are fun, challenging, and a nice change of pace. Plus, you can’t beat the scenery of the beach!"
Travel doesn’t have to mean lost progress, skipped workouts, or starting over when you get back. With FE Anywhere, your training stays consistent, your results stay on track, and your motivation never misses a beat.
This isn’t a watered-down version of personal training—it’s your same coach, your same accountability, and your same progress…just without the limits of location.
So whether you’re in a hotel, at a family gathering, or halfway across the country, you don’t have to hit pause on your health. You take FE with you. And that’s how consistency—and real results—stick, no matter where life takes you.
