When the alarm goes off I am so tired that it’s hard to remember why I wanted to exercise. I often tell myself that the rest is just as beneficial. Any suggestions?

It’s common to feel tired when the alarm goes off, making it hard to remember your motivation for exercise. Try setting a clear intention the night before, like visualizing how great you’ll feel after your workout. Additionally, consider creating a morning ritual that includes light stretching or a quick walk to ease into the day. Remember, rest is important, but regular exercise can boost your energy levels and mood. Start with small, manageable goals to build a lasting habit and keep your motivation alive!

Don’t let those mind weeds stay. It’s not an area for debate. When the alarm goes off, your mind needs to have a black and white. The alarm goes off, I get up and start on my routine. If the routine involves exercise, get it done.
