How to Train Smarter in Montenegro
Programming Tips
- Train the Big Six: Every park supports pull-ups, dips, push-ups, squats, L-sits, and rows.
- Rotate environments: Alternate between mountain parks (elevation training) and coastal ones (sand resistance).
- Travel light: Resistance bands and rings unlock dozens of extra movement variations.
Weather & Surface Tips
- Hydrate & shield: Adriatic sun can be intense—always bring water, sunscreen, and a cap.
- Watch your step: Some parks use gravel, sand, or concrete—use proper footwear or a yoga mat.
- Season matters: Summer = sunrise/sunset workouts. Spring/fall offer more all-day flexibility.
