You know how you go to the cottage… and there’s nothing to do but sit around and drink beer and eat chips?
And you keep thinking,
And you’ve already done The Original Cottage Workout so many times?
Welcome to the Cottage Workout 2.0! It’s another full body workout using only items you will find at most cottages. You will need:
- An old life jacket
- A boat bumper
- A ladder
- A solid chair
- Your Cottage Workout 2.0 PDF

Make sure you warm up first – a 5-10 swim or a jog would do the trick. Alternatively, do 20 jumping jacks and 20 alternating lunges four times each to lubricate the joints and get the muscles warm and ready for action.
Then, do 20 reps of each exercise in a circuit, keeping the transitions between the exercises quick so your heart rate stays elevated. You should be huffing and puffing the whole time.
If you can repeat the whole circuit four times, you have definitely earned your Miller time.
Station 1: Ladder Dips
Station 2: Life jacket Lunges
Station 3: Ladder Pull Ups
Station 4: Bumper Wall Sit
Station 5: Muskoka Mountain Climbers:
Station 6: Bumper Plank Roll Outs

Hi, Oonagh. I must say you are very innovative. Your cottage workout idea simply amazed me. ?
I travel a lot. So, I’m thinking to try these workouts when I will go to some cottage for my vacation. You are a very extra-ordinary trainer.
I wish my trainer could be more amazing as you. ?
Aw! Thanks, Samia! (PS. How about letting me be your trainer? Have you checked out my Transformation program? https://www.fitfeelsgood.com/transform )
Hey, Oonagh. I travel a lot. I am a passionate traveler. Sometimes I skip my workout. But after seeing you, I am being inspired by you.
You have just come up with such a great workout idea. I could never imagine this.
Thanks a ton, dear. I am going to apply this workout idea next time whenever I travel to a cottage.
