    Up at 3:30 am in the gym by 4:00 (weight lifting and running) at work by 6:45...
  • Wake up at 5:30, take vitamins, take the dog out, drink V8 or Poweade, hit the shower, and proceed to work, arriving at 7:00 AM
  • I get up at 3:25. Straight for the shower while the Keurig brews my Jet Fuel. After getting dressed for work (I work at 5AM and have a 40 minute commute) I blend up a wonderful breakfast protein smoothie that I take with me in the car.

    I'm up at 4 am, get ready for work and then at work until 1:30 pm and then I hit the gym for an hour or so. I would get to the gym in the morning, but my gym doesn't open until 5:30 am.

    I wake up at 5:30 and head to the gym! I'm usually half asleep for the first half of my workout but it's the best way to start the day!
  • Up at 4:45, get dressed and go straight to the gym. Workout for around an hour, head home and make my morning treats (protein shake, etc.) before hopping in the shower. Finally out the door by 6:45 to get to work by 7:30.

    Most days I'm up at 5, shower, hair, makeup, dress, then head downstairs to pack up lunches for the 3 of us that need them. Wake up the kids, get them their breakfast, eat mine, off to the sitters. I drink my coffee at work, usually around this time!

    I get up anywhere between 4 and 430. If its during the week, I have my coffee, poop, then head to the gym.


    If its the weekend, I still get up that early. I will watch the news, mess around on the laptop, coffee, poop, then gym.

    If this had been a few weeks ago, I was getting up at 3:30am every Mon, Wed and Thurs. Why? Raiding in WoW....<.< (My server is an aussie server mainly, but I live in the US lol)

    But now, usually 7am and that is because my son wakes up around that time. Rarely will he sleep past 7:30am.

    6am here. Shower, make breakfast smoothie and lunch, drop son off at daycare and go to work.

    No exercising in the morning for me. I'm not a morning person so I would most likely fall and hurt myself or something...

    I get up at 4am. Ideally I have breakfast & lunch packed and my clothes laid out for work the night before, but if not I have to do all that and get ready. I grab a quick snack (usually almonds or a cheese stick), and I'm in the car headed to work between 4:30-5. At work we have a track, so I walk from whatever time I get there until 6:30, at which time I head back to my desk stopping to warm up breakfast on the way so that I can eat while I check my emails.

    I don't drink coffee or tea, so usually there is no caffiene to fuel me, but once and a whie I break down and go buy myself a caffinated diet soda if I'm really sleepy. I also try to walk on my breaks and at lunch if I'm not too busy at work, and then workout again (something higher in intensity) when I get home. Of course getting up that early if I'm not in bed by 10 at the latest I pretty much turn into a pumpkin.

    Up at 5:30 five days a week. Two of them I get the dogs out, feed them and then head to the gym. Come home, shower, make my husband's and my breakfasts and then I have to be at work by 8.. The other three I get the dogs out and feed them, check the news, fix our breakfast and have to be at work by 7:15. Those days I work out after work.

    I set my phone with alarms for 4:25, 4:30, 4:35, 4:40 and 4:45 yep it's that hard for me to get up in the morning. I do actually get up by the the second alarm at 4:30.
    The greatest motivation to get up is to beat traffic and start work early. This really sets me up for a good routine all day long, for eating well and exercising. If I get up later in the day, I am no longer in control of my schedule.
    If I'm at work by 6 then use my 'lunch' time, 30 mins at 7am for a quick workout when there's no one in the office yet and then many days try to hit the gym at 3pm on my way home. And then I'm home by 4 or 5 pm.
    I can never do that much when I come to work by 9.
