    It's hard to wake up earlier thank normal. When I get into a routine, I find it MUCH easier to get up, as in there is no question whether or not I'm going to go workout or not. Also I like the mornings because I feel like I will make better choices throughout the day because I started it off so well.
    GOOD LUCK!

    I would much rather workout in the am...but due to work and child care issues, I can't. If you have the chance to get it done in the morning, go for it!!! I feel like it gives me a great start to the day,and puts me in the right frame of mind and mood to tackle anything in my way! Good luck to you in your journey!!!

    I think it's a great idea to do your workouts in the morning... I don't get up any earlier than I have to (I really should but I go to bed too late every night and then my kids wake me up at 6:30) but I do still work out in the morning before my husband gets home for lunch break. It makes me feel way better when I exercise in the morning to know that I've got it done and out of the way. I also do feel more energized and in a much better mood all together.
  • Another +1 to morning workouts. Puts my day started on a high note, more energy at work when people are still trying to "wake up", and you don't have all day to come up w/a thousand excuses why you can't workout later.

    As the saying goes, workout in the morning before your brain realizes what you're doing.
