Workout, Buddy?

Ding, Ding, Ding. Your phone is literally yelling at you to GET UP. just GET UP, ugh GET UP already.

Ugh, how quickly resolve dissolves in the bedsheets.

Remember, you promised yourself today was the day that you would get your workout done. You had such grand visions of accomplishment. You were thinking of setting PRs (personal records).

Now, at this very moment, the warm sheets and crisp cold air of this autumn morning, seemingly zap you of all resolve. Further adding insult, it is pitch dark out. UGH. 

You think to yourself, later. Actually, you are giving yourself the out. 

Yes, this is so very true, and everyone who has ever planned a workout has experienced this phenomenon.

– Doubles your fitness success

– Automatically creates time in your schedule

– The proven way to get out of ruts

Oh, do tell, what black magic has been conjured up this time?
