GRAND TOUR

New contributing editor Maria Sharapova shares her secrets for feeling good on the go.

As a pro tennis player and founder of my own candy business, Sugarpova, I’m constantly on the road. In fact, this month I’m heading to New York City for the U.S. Open after working— and playing—in 10 different countries so far this year. Yet, in spite of my busy travel schedule, I always have to be on my game from the moment I land. Here are my tricks for staying in peak form wherever I am.

WARM UP

I keep a cashmere scarf on hand— I get cold on airplanes.

SIT SMARTER

On long flights, I wear Nike Pro compression tights under my pants to maintain good circulation.

BRING BEAUTY BASICS

In my bag, you’ll always find hand cream, lip salve and a small bottle of perfume, my last touch before heading out.

STASH SNACKS

I bring my own food on planes: dried mangoes, almonds, Justin’s Chocolate Hazelnut Butter and a bag of fresh mint for tea.

BEAT JET LAG

After landing in a new city, I skip the caffeine until my body adjusts to the new time zone. It’s hard but worth it.

AVOID THE GLARE

I like to wear sunglasses that look chic but don’t overpower my face. My favorite style is Sir O’Malley Sun.

HIT PAUSE

Between tennis and Sugarpova, I work hard. But I also take a nap every afternoon. Resting my body and mind is important to me.

BREAK A SWEAT

After a long trip, I try to do something good for my body, like 30 minutes of intervals on a bike, alternating 15-second bursts with 2-minute recoveries.

PACK CLASSICS

I try to bring simple, elegant pieces. Isabel Marant is always on point.

I love jumpsuits! They’re casual, but you can dress them up with a statement necklace, too.
