Am Workouts

Members Were Sparked

I've started working out in the morning before work. I know everyone can't do that, but it really works for me. Then if I don't get any more exercise the rest of the day there is no guilt.

Make Your Pile!

One of my lamest excuses for skipping my early am workout was that I didn't want to wake my husband up by rummaging around for workout clothes. So now I "make a pile" at bedtime, with everything I need right down to a ponytail holder and pedometer. So now my workout partner will send me a text that reads "MYP, 5", short for "make your pile, we're going at 5:00am tomorrow morning".
