( CNN ) -- Arnold Schwarzenegger is on the road a lot , whether he 's filming a movie in Bulgaria or presenting awards to ridiculously fit people in Spain . So who better to offer tips on working out while traveling ? It 's obvious the former bodybuilding champ has kept in shape . In a video he posted on Instagram on Thursday , Schwarzenegger barely breaks a sweat as he tackles the elliptical and several weight machines in his hotel gym . `` Someone on Reddit asked what it was like for me to train in hotel gyms or other unfamiliar gyms on the road , '' Schwarzenegger posted . `` The answer is : just like it is for you . There is no waiting to train until you have perfect circumstances . I improvise with whatever is available . `` I walk in and my only rule is to keep moving , for a pump and cardio at the same time . Rest as little as possible . After an hour , you will feel fantastic and your muscles wo n't know what hit them . '' The actor trains every day for at least an hour to be in shape for movies like `` Escape Plan , '' which releases in theaters tonight . A Reddit user posted a link to the Instagram video on the site , and Schwarzenegger , a frequent Reddit contributor , jumped on to offer some more advice . `` The point is n't the machines or the exercises , '' he wrote . `` The point is that you can create a workout for your goals anywhere . Even if you just use a chair for dips , a table for rows and the floor for pushups . '' Schwarzenegger said he enjoys working out in unfamiliar gyms , even if sometimes he 'd prefer to be at home . `` I like shocking my system , '' he wrote , `` so I look at the bright side . '' You have to wonder if the bodybuilder-turned actor-turned governor-turned-actor ever gets interrupted during his workout . Occasionally , he said , but mostly people keep to themselves . Fair warning to fans in New Orleans , where Schwarzenegger is filming `` Maggie '' : The actor said he welcomes people who want to say hello to him while he 's resting between sets , but `` do n't slow me down while I 'm working . '' Maybe it 's just us , but we would never bother someone with these biceps mid-grunt . Of course , staring at him oddly is n't a good idea either . `` Based on the looks I 've been getting in the hotel gym , people think something is seriously wrong with donkey raises , '' Schwarzenegger posted on Reddit earlier this month , referring to calf exercises that involve bending forward and lifting and lowering your heels . `` I ca n't recommend them enough , though . ''
