I look at it two ways! One, if I have hours to spend on here, then I certainly have an hour to workout. Two, I joined with a friend from work. We plan ahead of time when we're going and write it in our planners. So finding time is easy if you look at what else you are doing that can be cut out. Finding energy is easy if you have a friend to do it with you.

I force myself to go. I'm not always in the mood but if I make plans to meet a friend to workout or dance, I'm less likely to back out of my plans.

I find time to go after work 4x a week. I do my chores when I get home or save 'em for the weekend....when I usually dont go to the gym at all.

You can find the time to go if you motivate yourself enough to just drive there and workout.....You gotta make it a habit....almost in a way. And once you do, you'll feel great about it. Chat Icon Chat Icon

Same here.

It's so hard because I'm so motivated in the mornings, but when the clock hits 5 I just want to go home and sit...kind of like I do ALL day at work. It's amazing how sitting for 8 hours a day exhaustes you.Chat Icon
Anyway...I bring my clothes to work with me and head straight to the gym. It takes a moment for me to convince myself to go once I get in the car, but once I'm there...I feel so much better that I went.Chat Icon

Re: How does everyone find time for the GYM??

I just joined Curves.
You are supposed to go 3x a week for 30 minutes.

I find myself going 5x a week to stay motivated. If I don't consistently go, I may not go at all! I am a very LAZY person!!

I go straight from work. DO NOT stop home, otherwise I may not go. Its not so bad!

Re: How does everyone find time for the GYM??

I have no motivation to go to a gym... so I work out at home! I have girly dumbbells, a treadmill, a bike, and some workout dvds... it is so much easier for me to wake up 45 mins early and just go down to the basement to work out, or right when I get home from work I do it.

Re: How does everyone find time for the GYM??

I go after work- I just tell myself to do it and I go. Once I am there, everything is fine. I am definitely more motivated to go if I am going to a class- it starts at a specific time, and I know I have to be there at that time.

Re: How does everyone find time for the GYM??

I make myself go after work. I pack my gym clothes the night before and start telling myself that I am going after work. After work, I make sure that I head right to the gym. Even if I am tired, I tell myself I am going to do only 20 minutes. I usually feel so much better afterwards.

Gym is not an option...i workout 4-5 days a week...every week unless I am not well. I go in the mornings during busy weeks...get up at 530am....during no so busy weeks go after work.

For me, starting the week on Sunday is so important...I love when Monday comes I already have one workout under my belt.

So true!!

Plus once you get started, you will love the feeling after you are done exercising. Believe me, there are times when I am so tired and and hungry and I just don't want to go, but then I go and I feel so much better.

Re: How does everyone find time for the GYM??

I really don't have time because I go to class so many evenings after work. I do workout tapes in my living room for now. However, I would like to join a gym for the summer when I have more free time.
