[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Np here. I’m both here for answers and I suppose I could provide a couple of tips too. I’m halfway fit (with kids), and I’m quickly progressing. I think you have many good answers above.

It’s hitting me hard how much getting up early is key. ...

My biggest obstacle is days I can’t do that (or days I can’t otherwise make up for it later in the day).   But as for mornings...I’m having difficulty getting 8 hours of sleep. *my kids are not going to bed on time. So if I wake up early enough, I’m not getting enough sleep*. It’s like I can’t get sleep + alone time + workout all together. (Id need 8hr including falling sleep + 40m to do a 30m exercise + about 20m of quiet parent time).[/quote]

I’m not at a stage where I’m willing to work out at 5am or anytime in the morning. During the school year, I work out 4-5 days a week and 2-4 days in summer. Single mom. I chose a gym a block from her aftercare pickup and workout for an hour and then pickup at the last minute. I’m not going to workout regularly at home as I’m less disciplined at home and have no desire to. Saturday and Sunday workouts are nonnegotiable. I weight train 1-2 days a week. This is key. Make sure that you are using weights and really challenging yourself since we lose a half pound of muscle otherwise. [/quote]
