Anyone here work out in the mornings? I'm finding it tough to maintain energy on an empty stomach at 6am in the morning; any tips? Workout squad?

i used to run before class/work every morning. running early in the morning has an amazing way of clearing your head and waking you up. when you get to class/work, you will be able to think much better as compared to sleeping a little longer and doing your normal morning routine. definitely try running before work!

 

Yeah I try to do treadmill right after I lift, but that usually stretches the workout to 2 hrs. Did you eat something before you went running? I'm thinking a granola bar or something of that sort should do the trick.

a small protein shake always does the trick.. BTW cardio in the am on an empty stomach is when you burn the most calories.

 

I will probably go running after work this evening. In the rain :awais:

 

I want to start doing cardio in the morning. I just am not a morning person so its hard for me to get out of bed

 

it gets easier when you have someone to go with.

Thank god for Mar. :relieved:

 

i only do on sundays.. around 10 or so when they open.. the rest the week its at 10pm lol

 

working out on an empty stomach ? :nono:

 

It's tough to squeeze breakfast in because my "time slot" is 6am->8am, and I don't think I can wake up any earlier lol. I'll try a shake + granola bar before each workout and see if it helps.
