[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve accepted that the only time of day that I can realistically get a good workout in is early in the morning before work and before the kids are up. Problem is that it takes me a while to wake up and get going. That time of the day is when I have the least amount of energy or will power to actually start a workout. So, I guess I’m looking for some advice from folks that do this. What time are you getting up? Do you workout straight away, or are you waiting / eating breakfast and then doing it? How do you get motivated to start? Does it get easier after a while of doing this. I spend most of the previous day telling self I’m going to workout in the morning, but talk myself out of it as soon as I wake up. [/quote]

OP you just have to wait until kids are older or your DH makes enough you can go part time or SAH. Just not enough hours in day. [/quote]

This is the wrong answer. Fitness and health don’t start when the kids or older and they don’t depend on you being a stay at home parent. You wake up, drink your coffee, and just GO. You go even though you don’t want to. The same way you would not skip brushing your teeth or showering, you make it so habitual to work out that you don’t consider not going just because sleeping or sitting in your chair a little longer sounds nicer. The absolute only way to make it a part of your daily life is to do it often enough that it becomes routine. You literally just make yourself wake up, make yourself get dressed, make yourself get to the gym, make yourself work out. It’s discipline, you just have to cultivate it. [/quote]

You can actually get sick more from working out without enough sleep. [/quote]

And you can die from inactivity and obesity.  [/quote]
