[quote=Anonymous]DH and I are trying to get back into a routine at the gym. We can’t decide which of these options will be more attractive and help us stick with it. We’d ideally like to be going 2-3 times a week M-F (we plan to go at random times S-Su).

We have two teens, but they are home from any after school activities around the time I get home from work at 4pm. DH rolls in around 5pm.

Plan A is to have dinner around 6pm and then head to the gym at 6:30, and work out for around an hour and a half.

Plan B is to head to the gym as soon as DH gets home, work out for an hour and a half, and get home (6:30) and prepare dinner.

While it sounds nice to just get it done right at 5pm (Plan B), getting home and having to prepare dinner at 6:30 sounds awful.

On the other hand, will we hate getting back from the gym at 8pm and then basically heading to bed soon after?

(Please don’t suggest we go before work—we tried it before and found it too stressful and rushed and we didn’t stick with it. We aren’t morning people.) [/quote]
