Yes sir! This is right. The hardest part is the start- once you get going, you finish.

I come home from work everyday, change into my workout clothes, fix my husbands supper and then I head to my workout room. No excuses, just do it!!!! emoticon

Good advice! emoticon I wake up every morning at 4:15 to hit the gym for 5:00, so it will make me or break me whether I get out of bed- once I'm up, I'm there! If I hit the snooze button, I can kiss my workout goodbye and have regret for the rest of the day. I agree- just get there.

Just put on the exercise clothes / shoes and show up to do some kind of exercise. Start in and if you don't feel like working out today, fine -- at least you put out the effort to show up! Most always you will continue and get through your workout. The hardest thing is getting yourself to show up, so simply make that your goal! It works for me!
