My motivation starts in the middle of the night before sleep

For about 3 months I’ve been waking up at 5 am Monday - Friday and working out for about an hour and a half. It’s been great and rewarding so far.

As soon you get up Praise god for giving a new day...pray..then start excercise...god will take care

[crystalpardo]

Waking up is already the hardest part of my day😭

[hamsternationrules]

Getting up and existing is the hardest part of my day. 😂

I’m gonna wake up at 6am and go for a run, eat a nice breakfast, and make a gratitude list before work. Hold me to it!

I genuinely love morning workouts, I get up at 4:50 and head to the gym. I literally get to head outside to a beautiful sunrise and workout for 90 minutes, get home, shower, have breakfast, and I still have time to get to work easily. No caffeine needed and the days feel 2x as long

I have been adding gym routine in the morning since few months ago and I feel like it's highly effective. For past 1 week it was really difficult to wake up at 6 am and felt lazy to workout at gym. But slowly everything changed. I know enjoy every morning exercise daily and it feels really great whole day after working out in the morning.

a morning routine is very important as it starts you in the right direction mentally and physically. iv found for myself that if i do not get up early, even though i don't like getting up early, my day doesn't start right and i cant get everything i need to get done in a day finished. when i get up the first 15 minutes or less kinda suck but honestly once that passes i feel so glad i got up, especially if i get into my stretches or light cardio sessions depending on which day it is. it's pretty important. it won't be easy and isn't meant to feel great, but its the added benefits you feel after you start doing it.

Doing this starting tomorrow waking at 4:45 am leave home at 5:20am and get in the gym before 6am wish me luck! Hello new me

[iosuamaalo]

I have anxiety and depression I do work out after that I start smiling at everyone I pretty much on the good mood

[softglow]

i tried waking up at 5AM to workout for 3 months. I decided to just do it at 6PM and it worked much better for me.

[Bradley]

yep. workout before you eat anything in the morning. I've been going to the gym (if anyone cares) and I've been doing good so far.. I lost 25 pounds in 2 1/2 months. but now I'm stuck at 230.. trying to get down to 200.. going to the gym tomorrow morning. I usually go to the gym for about an hour and ten minutes every other day now. but I noticed that when I worked out first thing in the morning before eating anything, I dropped it much quicker. Consuming whey protein helps you feel full.

[JesusBelieverDiane]

I have no problem exercising later in the day. Never been a morning fitness type. I’ve tried but then I feel like going to bed after a morning workout

[savorwithdmurph]

Thanks! I'm starting to wake up early to exercise and can use all the positive reinforcement I can get.

[johnwalker]

I love this guy. He says there’s absolutely no excuse not to work out. What an honest straightforward person.

[carlzeitgeist]

So true...use to think i was healthy as I was naturally slim and ate a healthy diet. Adding exercise improved my mental health 10fold!

[Busterbrowns]

Dude I’m the opposite. I have no motivation in the morning and my anxiety and depression keeps me from going to the gym. After work I have way more motivation.
