FH and I usually try to go the gym after work, but with us both working so late and getting home routinely after 9pm, it is really difficult. This weekend we talked it over and we decided that the best thing to do is try to go before work about 3-4 times a week. But that means we have to wake up at 5:30 or so to do it, because he needs to be in the shower by 7 and me by 7:30! Wish us luck! We are going to start this week and hopefully it goes ok! It means we have to alter our schedules to get to bed much earler than 1am, but we really want to try!

I used to go to the gym in the morning and it felt so good b/c you already got it out of the way! And the rest of the day you will have so much energy too!
Good luck!!

Good luck! You guys can do it! I go in the morning too and it took a couple of weeks for my body to adjust to getting up early, but now its much easier.

Good luck to you both!! I don't have a lot of time to go to the gym because of my work and school hours so really the only way I can go during the week is if I go to the gym early in the morning. I am so not a morning person. My FH goes in the morning but we don't live together so it doesn't help me. As long as the two of you encourage each other you'll be motivated. good luck again!!

Good luck!! It'll be a little difficult getting use to a new routine at first so don't get discouraged. But once you get into it I'm sure you'll feel 100x better!

Good luck. Once you get into the routine of going to bed early then waking up early will not feel as bad.

With anything it will be difficult in the beginning. But, once you start this schedule and stick to it; it will become second nature.

I used to go to the gym after work, now I am luckky enough to go during my lunch break. I bring shower stuff and and a change of clothes, so it works for me. If it works to go in the morning, it's a great feeling. Plus it's getting warmer out, so i think it would work for you both.

I have to tell you- I love this. I get up three times a week before work and go to the gym. It's a great way to start the day and you will continue because when you come home from work, then you have more time with FH!

Definitely give it a shot and see if you could do that maybe twice during the week and a more normal time on the weekends. Going to the gym before work I heard it great because it gives you a lot of energy for the day . Good Luck

I wake up at 5:30 everyday anyway . . . it's not that bad. I wish I could go to the gym in the am but I just can't push it to wake up earlier than 530.
Trust me - 5:30 is not THAT early and you will feel so much more energized throughout the day!!
