I go about 4 mornings a week for an hour to hour and 10 mins. Do about 45 mins cardio and then weights. I never have any interest in the gym in the evening and the only time I can manage to go is in the morning!! Its great to have it over and done with for the day. Would love if the gym did a class in the morning though - bootcamp or something but nothing yet!

I always have all my clothes laid out the night before so its literally crawl into them and out the door. Once i m out the door and in the gym i m fine! Never eat anything beforehand and I have always been ok so far. Normally take a wednesday off but going out on thursday night so I know i wont go friday so its gym in the morning for me!

I go in the mornings aswel. Once I have everything ready the night before it's not too hard to get up.

Usually have a boiled egg before I leave. Don't think I could run on a totally empty stomach.

Would highly recommend going in the morning, no wait for machines and you feel great for the rest of the day :wv

I tend to go in the mornings too, I dont think I could face the evenings in the gym! I find I get it over and done with in the mornings when DD is still asleep that way Im not missing out playing with her! But I do be shattered getting up, but If I dont get up I get guilty through out the day!!

I have my bag packed the night b4 and leave it downstairs, i have my clothes in the bathroom, ready to put them on me, brush my teeth, wash my face, throw my hair up in a ponytail and out I go. at 6 in the morning people we can get away with looking a tad rough!!!

I went this morning, it nearly killed me but I got my running done, my bootcamp done and even some extra exercises done all before 8am, and was still washed, cleaned, dressed and in work for 8.30!!!

I have my breakfast when I get into work! I think in my head that if i work out on an empty stomach you burn all yesterdays calories!! Silly I know but thats what way my brain works!!!!

I might start running in the very early morning when it gets a little brighter but when its still dark I don't feel that safe outside that early. It's so much harder in the evenings tho, not feeling very motivated at the moment!

Ooooh!!! I looked into this before Christmas but still haven't got around to talking myself into it!
I'd love to get all trimmed up and thinner thighs before our wedding and my bro says the only job is the gym..
The thoughts of paying money for exercise though!! :weep

I'm not being tight but I USED to be used to outdoor exercise - jogging / walking. Haven't done anything in aages though as my buddy for all that is out of action..
Excuses? Me? :innocent:

possibly!!!

I can get up & go on the bright summer mornings but am a disaster on these dark mornings. How do you make yurself go? I get a bag nearly every night so Ill get up & go but when the alarm goes off I reset it - every single time

Girls, what time do your gyms open at? Would be looking for somewhere in North Dublin that opens around 6am. That possible?

Platinum gym balbriggan opens at 6.30, a little too late for me on my new shift unfortunately.

Who is online
