Exercise: Am or PM?

If I say this on the internet maybe it will help keep me accountable and NOT fall off the bandwagon. I've been getting up in the mornings when Dustin leaves which is about 30 minutes earlier than I would normally. 

What am I doing up so early?

working out

I always have the best intentions of working out in the evenings, but it never happens. I'm either too tired or we have plans. Besides, I know it's really better to do it in the morning first thing anyway. And, to be honest, I really do feel better for the day!

This has been my workout video of choice:

I did this video before the wedding and it works! Also, I add some elliptical time.

I know 30 minutes isn't much, but it's plenty for me. 

What about yall? Do you workout in the evening or get up in the morning and get it over with?

Well lately I've been walking in the evenings with my mom, but when when I'm able to run, I like to get up and do it first thing. It just makes the whole day better!! :)

I always heard that the morning is better! And way to go for 30 minutes, that's more than alot of people do and better than nothing!!! :)

I work out after work at ATC..and it helps that the gym is on the way home...I pass right by it. But I do think working out first thing in the morning is better...it makes your day better and also if something comes up in the evening, you don't have to pass on your workout because it's already done. Good for you for getting up early and working out! Keep it up!

Good for you!! I still do it at night, but maybe one day I can be good like you. :)

I prefer to do it in the morning, because I don't want to do ANYTHING when I get off work! HA!
Keep it up! You can do it!

I always switch between morning and afternoon workouts depending on what I plan on doing. That DVD looks great!

I usually workout in the evenings because I have to head straight to work in the mornings.

I used to workout in the morning but because of my carpool situation it's hard to get there in the morning. I've been trying to get there after work but that's been hit or miss lately :(

Good luck!!

I have been slacking in the "working out" department. 30 min is good and I think that mornings are better than evenings. I always find a reason for not working out in the evenings.

I definitely prefer working out in the mornings, and have been really into videos lately! I will have to try this one next!

Keep up the good work!

I love my cardio so I am an evening girl. There may be a day here or there where I am too pooped to go to the gym, but I stay pretty motivated. How is Personal Training with Jackie? I've heard it's a tough one. You go girl!

good for you on working out hun!! getting in a routine makes it so much easier!
i used to wake up at 4:40 to go to the gym before work but that only lasted about a month, it just wore me out.
these days when i do make it to the gym i go right after work. if i don't then there is no way i'll go ;)

So proud of you for working out! It is so worth it and so good for you. Oh yeah, you know, I do my workout every night. Sometimes for 30 min, other nights, I do 45 to an hour

I'm the same way. If I don't get a work out in the morning, I somehow won't do it after work. My problem is waking up early enough to get the work done!

I'm with you girl - I like working out in the mornings. The mornings just seem to work best for me. And I think 30 minutes is just great!! That's about the length of my workouts too. :)
