AM exercisers - what makes you get up?

Caroline Kim · 05-10-02, 10:06 PM

I am not a morning person (given the choice, I'd wake up at noon instead of 6 am, but I'd also be 15 pounds heavier because I would never be able to fit exercise in!)

1) I set my alarm 20 minutes before I have to get up and I hit the snooze button twice. I also have my clock by the bed set 10 minutes fast. Even though I know it's fast, it still helps

2) Check ins and challenges - I am in a weekly check-in and I feel accountable because of that. I also joined the Every Day in May challenge so I plan to stick to it unless an unforeseen emergency occurs.

3) Rotations - I am doing a weekly rotation right now, so my anal personality will not allow me to stray from it.

Aside, from those 3, finding workouts that I love helps immensely. I only want to exercise if it makes me feel good!
