Hey HotRod - I'm so glad to hear that there's another Non Morning Person out there! All these bright eyed and bushy tailed folks are making me ill.
My beloved has been springing out of bed at 0530 to do PT (that's Physical Training for the non military) for twenty years. Personally, I think that somewhere in the Geneva Convention there's a mention of that being a violation...
I, on the other hand, like to work out in the afternoon. I've decided that it's an even trade-off. Being rather coordination-challenged at the best of times, I figure if I go to the gym bleary eyed and half asleep, I'll probably trip over a weight bench, break my neck, and end up in a body cast for six months.
I'll take the metabolic trade-off any day!
After moving to this particular hellhole, I joined a gym which immediately was sold. Conditions went down the toilet; the place was gross. Almost a year passed with no dedicated workout time.
Husband finally convinced me that the gym at his installation was quite good. And, guess what, he's right!
Currently, I'm doing six days per week: Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday are a combo of 1 hour weight lifting and 45 minutes of cardio.
Sunday and Wednesday are about 90 minutes of cardio.
Cardio for me isn't what it is for others, but I'm maxing out my heart rate, and that's all that counts.
I've found, over the years, that if I don't buss a**, nothing gets accomplished. Not only am I non-morning, but my body's a putz.
