I prefer to work out in the evenings, right after work. (Well, if I am 100% honest, I prefer to not work out at all, but I was trying to sound all exercise-positive here, rah rah!) But sometimes, life gets in the way, and working out after work is impossible.
This evening, for example, we will be heading out right away for my stepson’s football game. It’s an hour drive each way to Hickville (a/k/a the Inbred Capital of the World), so we won’t be home until much too late to even think of exercise.
Oh well, so sad. Just skip the workout, right?
That’s what I used to do. And, admittedly, it’s what I was very much tempted to do today. Instead, I set the alarm for an hour earlier than usual (ouch). I got up and worked out this morning so it’s all done for the day, checked off, complete! Boo-yah!
I can’t say I enjoy morning workouts, or getting up so early, but I am proud that I did it, and happy that my workout is done for the day. Hopefully it all pays off at weigh-in tomorrow morning!
