I do most of my workouts at home so I like to be in the quiet of the basement. I banish the kids and hubby from coming down there while Im working out. If on the bike I have my Ipod and headphones with the music blasting or sometimes I read my Kindle. If doing aerobics on a video, I usually mute the sound and just follow the movements with my own music in the background. My workout time is my me time. I want no distractions so I can just zone out and power through....!! :wink:


How do you guys power though a workout??

    I do cross fit and well I was in the Army and i imagine my drill sergeants yelling at me as well as picking someone in the group whom looks better in shape than I and make it a point to do as good or better than them.

    I have my own personal gym at home. My workout time is my time. I don't like to be bothered when I'm working out and I will not be bothered.

    Hit the gym @ 5:30 am, 1-1.5 hrs of weightlifting, 4x per week.

    Wake up at 5:30, run a mile to the gym, do 45 minutes weight training, run for an hour and then elliptical for another 30, then run back home :)

    Once the snow really starts coming down, things get difficult.... :)

    I work out at home either with dvds or on my treadmill or elliptical. I get very crabby if I get interrupted!

    Before I injured my foot I use to wake up early and walk with my headphones on and enjoy MY time. But now, I enjoy taking slower walks with my husband and 2 year old. He even joined me doing my work out videos and we usually end up laughing our butts off! Kinda funny how things change...
