For the 30 minutes I lie awake in bed hitting the snooze button, I could be getting in a morning workout. I am going to shoot for one morning a week and then work up from there.

I just accepted this challenge today. I’ve done early morning workouts a few years ago. They were great as long as u can get up early enough. You really have to be focused and motivated to do it. I know I can do this, again.

I’m not much of a runner but i want to start doing some type of physical activity every morning…and advice on what to do and how your motivated to do it everyday?!

I’ve been feeling guilty these last few days because I’m in a funk and haven’t been getting out in the morning to exercise, so I’m glad I found this challenge. I still enjoy getting out at lunch for a bike ride, or yoga in the evenings, but I feel my best after a good run or strength training in the morning.

I started this challenge 3 days ago and have been doing pretty well so far! I wake up around 7-7:20am and do my T-Tapp 15 minute Basic Workout, then get ready for work. I’m feeling a lot better and plan to keep it up!

I always work-out after work. I just don’t have time in the morning. I really enjoy working out in the evening because that’s when my gym classes are scheduled.

I started recording a pilates show on Veria and have been doing it 3-4 times a week in the mornings. It takes about 40 minutes after skipping commercials and feels great. I don’t have to really get motivated to go run or anything, I start by just laying on the floor in my pjs, can’t go wrong! Paired with lunch-time walking and after-work jogging, I feel like myself again!

I really want to get into the routine of working out in the morning but I have such a hard time getting out of bed and getting going does anyone have any tips?
I am hoping that if I put my self in this challenge it will help me out.

My two dogs get me out every morning, we either go for a bike ride or a walk. I take them separately, so that gets me moving for quite a while before my day starts.

I’m loving getting up in the morning going to the gym. I’ve noticed that when I workout early, my day goes so smooth!!

Got up this morning-even though it was raining, I managed to get to the gym for some strength training and afterwards I will have a kashi trailbar for my snack. Good Luck everyone with your challenges!!!!!

I hate getting up early in the morning! I got a gym membership at a gyn a mile away from my house and with my insurance I get $20.00 off every month I go 12 times. I wont go in the evenings because I take my dogs for a walk in the evening and I don’t want them to sit in their kennels all day and all night. So I really have to push myself to get up with a little help from my husband!!

I really thought that I’d be tired after waking up an hour earlier (4am), but it’s the middle of the work day and I still feel fine! I felt a great deal of satisfaction knowing that I had already accomplished 1 goal for the day by 5am!

it helps me start my day out i feel. i feel so much better about my day.

I’ve been working out in the morning since I quit smoking 18 years ago. I started to help control any weight gain that I was afraid of and it just became part of my lifestyle. I feel energized, strong, and ready to face the day. I save kickboxing for evenings!

Lissy, Keep up the good work, I unfortunately know how you feel, My wife and I were expecting a baby, and of course I ate all the junk food and take out that came with it, but She developed preeclampsia five months into her pregnancy, and we lost our baby girl, Of course it took it’s toll on both of us, and I ballooned up to 272 pounds. Finally my wife said “That’s it” ! Yes I feel bad and yes I almost lost my life, but we’re still here, and I want to live. That was last August, as of now I’m at 237, and we just purchased a treadmill for Christmas, so I say, Yes life throws you some bad deals, but life is to long, Live it happy,

In 2004, I found myself at my highest weight..264. I was miserable. My health was bad, and to add to my low self-esteem, my marraige seemed to fail as well. In September of that same year, my brother was diagnosed at 34 with diabetes. I vowed to change. I started eating right, and slowly added exercise. In a two year period, I lost over 100 pounds. I’ve gained 40 back because of the holidays and changes in my life. I need to get some motivation! I am starting Monday, January 7th, as the day I take my life back! :) My goal is to get back into the 14 pair of size 10 jeans that are in my closet, instead of wearing the 16’s I am in now! Please Please help me keep motivated! Thank you all!

I just tried my new gift DDR and am hoping that adding that to my stationary bike and weight training will shed some pounds and help me feel more alive.
