When do you exercise?

[ShannonK]

Where is everybody today? It seems awfully quiet.
So, I thought I would ask the question that is most difficult for me. When does everyone exercise? In other words, how do you fit it all in? And what type of exercise works best for you?

Re: When do you exercise?

I have to exercise at night during the week and usually in the afternoons on the weekends. It is really hard to fit it all in but I have been making exercise a priority in my life.

To use Nike's phrase.....Just Do It !!! : )

I exercise at night. I like to walk on the treadmill at a high incline to burn more fat. It's tough but watching tv makes it much better.

Shannon,

I tried exercising in the morning, but I got sick that way so I exercise in the late afternoon or evening (usually while dinner is in the oven).

Re: When do you exercise?

I tried getting up at 5:00 to work out but that was tough. Half the time I wouldn't wake up. I go to the gym a couple of times a week right after work. The days I don't go to the gym I do a video as soon as I get home from work, usually while dinner is cooking. That's the best time for me. It frees up the evening for other things. On the weekends I take my doggie out for longer walks, sometimes go to the gym or do a video (but usually cleaning a 3 storey house is enough exercise - lol). I find that cementing it in my mind helps a lot. i.e. To do list: put casserole in oven, exercise, bathe cat, etc. I make sure my gym bag is packed the night before so there's no excuse like leaving my workout pants behind or anything. Some days when I'm too busy I either go for a walk at lunch, or take a longer route home from work so I can at least get 30 minutes of something in.

In The Evening Except On Weekends

Re: When do you exercise?

During the week...I start exercising around 5:45 or 6:00 AM. My boyfriend and I carpool to save gas. He has to be at work by 5:30 AM and I don't start until 7:00 AM...So I have time to kill.


Weekends...Probably the afternoon...I just started exercising this week. LOL

Re: When do you exercise?

I go to the gym 3 nights a week and then occasionally on a Sunday aswell. I also do RPM / spinning most Friday mornings.

Re: When do you exercise?

I put it off as late as I can - then fit it in at the last possible 1/2 hr. Bad, I know. I tried exercising in the mornings but decided to stop when I hurt myself from not really being awake enough to balance.

Re: When do you exercise?

I workout within an hour of waking up.

Re: When do you exercise?

You guys are so good! Especially, those first thing in the morning exercisers. I have tried and tried and I feel so sluggish when I run and yes, clumsy. I much prefer running in the evening, but gee whiz, the problem there is finding the time! I am getting there, though. I did go out Tuesday, but skipped last night. I was sore.
So, i guess I should go today, but I am traveling out of town for the week-end, so I should have gone this morning. BUT I was packing. Sigh. Excuses, excuses, any of this sound familiar?
