I am usually going to work at 4am usually go to bed around 11pm. So I am not thinking I will be doing mine in the mornings. I will be doing early afternoons after work or possibly at night after the kids go to bed.0

Well, I guess you're still dragging your *kitten* out of bed though!! Just not for the same thing!!!
I don't have to be to work until 8.0 -
I'm planning on working out in the mornings too. Perhaps 5 or 6am.0
-
I like to do it mid morning that way I don't wait until the end of the day and then not do it.
What weights are y'all starting out with?
I've got 3&5 lb from 30day shred... Thinking I should buy 8 & 10lbs just in case I get stronger lol0 -
I have 5 lbs, and also was thinking of getting some that are heavier!!0
-
I will be using bands. The heaviest weights that I have are 20 lbs and that is not enough for most of the exercises for me.0
-
I'll be doing mine somewhere between 11 am and 4 pm.0
-
I would love to work out in the morning but I am seriously incapable of getting out of bed anytime before 5:30AM. I usually work out sometime between 7pm and 9pm0

When i started P90x 3 weeks ago i od 3 and 5lbs, after the first workout i knew it would not be enough, id recommend getting a set of 8 and 10lbs also the magenta resistance band is a good one to start the pull ups with if you like me cannot do a pull up yet
I do the workouts after work usually around 6pm or so ( I go to a spin class at the gym 3 days a week at 6 am)0 -

Oooo! You answered my question before I even asked it! Thanks. I was wondering about the whole pull up thing as I know for a fact I can't do a single one lol0 -

I have serious doubts that I'll be able to get up that early, but I really want this, so I'm willing to start going to bed at 8 pm if that's what it takes to get up at 4. I told my husband to push me out of bed as soon as my alarm goes off!!
I wish I could work out later but have to be at work by 8 and I'd like to try and get it over with in the morning!0 -
I am working out at 5:30 am. It works best for me.0
-
I'll be working out at 6:30AM. It's been my experience that if I save the workout for after I get home from work, it simply requires a monumental amount of motivation for me to keep doing it. If it's in the morning I can simply make it a part of my morning habits and never slip up.
Also, as a bonus, I find that when I workout in the morning I am less hungry for the whole day. A morning workout means a protein shake will keep me full until lunchtime, which is awesome.0 -
My plan is to get it in at 6am. However, I don't know how long the workouts are so I need to check that so I don't have to interrupt my workout to take my little one to school.
How long do the workouts last?0 -

Again "what the hell did I get myself into" is screaming through my head! Seeing the times of these workouts makes me seriously reconsider how this will fit into my daily life! I realized this morning at 5:30 that the whole Chest & Back + Ab Ripper would not fit into my morning so I settled for AM Abs and PM Chest/ Back. I don't think I did two a days in high school. I got up early today but not early enough. If I get up at 4:30 I'll have a prayer of finishing the whole workout before my daily grind. Gosh that is early. (insert profanity here)0 -
I work nights so I get home at 8:30 am, I work out then. Rumor has it I may be going to a split shift in 2 weeks so if that does happen I'll be getting up at 5:00 am to do my workouts 3 days, and then swing to nights for 2 nights. then I'll workout in the morning after work. LOL don't ya just love it.0

I will probably workout in the evening after work...gonna have to force myself to do it today but once I start I think I'll be ok. Pray for me!!!0
