X-MEN comfort zone?

ok-made ya look!-some ramblings about dealing with improv training while on the 'road..
The palm trees INSIDE that closed movie 'set(shooting?:"x-men:FIRST CLASS")..were trucked in from who-knows-where,and
are lifted by forklift to meet the needs of the 'shot,as dictated by the director or production designer ..each one in it's own wooden box!

Too often in our weekly training we can get so deep into that same controlling/structured place,which is fine:
"this week=M W F=kettlebells,Sat. will be TRX,etc."--Familiar,comfortable,defined...BUT...
what if we find ourselves OUTSIDE the fence-as i am, on the road this week?--Do i panic and toss away all my hard work  because i have no kettlebells,no therabands,no gym?
The palm trees this week are really the same as the ones i was around last week..So, i do bodywt. workouts,
use water bottles,stones,whatever is handy to get my training in...y'know-improv....looking around us,re-evaluating our goals,needs,and limitations,we often will trip over the "palm trees"that we never even noticed before!
Hey, about that "comfort zone" -if we stop pushing at it's "walls?--it gets SMALLER..and smaller.....
