Do you have problems getting up in the morning to exercise?





You should train at a time that you know you will do it and stick to that time. I am a morning exerciser. I know myself very well and I know that if I do not exercise in the mornings, it will not happen. This is the same for me in the winter or summer. However, many of my clients like to exercise in the evening or afternoon. It comes down to personal choice.

If you know that it is unrealistic for you to get up and exercise in the dark in the morning -  do not just set your alarm and then turn it off and turn over. Either arrange to meet friends or a trainer or simply change your regular time of training. Set yourself realistic goals and do not make excuses. Ie. ‘ I will meet the girls for a Pump class at lunchtime so I do not need to get up and train in the cold in the morning’.

Prioritise your workouts, put it in your diary like any other appointment.
Investing time in your health is just as important as work or family commitments.
