When do you exercise?

When during the day do you get moving and what do you do? 

When I'm working- I work afternoon shift (5pm-130am)

I try to get my walk in after my computer time in the morning - generally around 11am or so.  I walk for a mile or 2 depending on leg numbness.

If I start to get antsy later in the day I'll go out and walk up and down the road a few times.

If I do my bowflex (which I need to do more of) I do that in the AM as well.

When and what do you do and do you find that any one time/type benefits you more than another?

Hey there I do daycare and I get up around 6am sit on the couch sip on coffee kids start coming at 6:30 Eat breakfast around 7-8 then we are out side.... I know I am not much help!!!!!!  We go for walks and sometimes it seems to take FOREVER cuz the kids have to stop and rest.... LOLOL Last year it was me and this year it is them WOOOOOHOOOOO..... I don't go to the gym anymore just cuz I do daycare all hours of the day and night and We try to go for walks at night also.  Good luck to you my sweets..... Hugs Marsh

LOL that's the trick huh?  CHASE KIDS!!  lol  Whatever you are doing, keep it up!  You are looking great  :)  What a great turn around for you  :)  I know that sometimes when I'm out on my walk (back and forth up and down our little dirt road) that my grand daughter will come booking down her driveway to go walkies with gramma  :)  We have to slow way down (she's only 18 months) but it's worth it! *hugs*

Lori~For the most part I exercise in the evening because I have to get up at 6:15 am to get ready for work and any earlier would not be a very energetic workout!  Depending on what I have going on after work and what time the yoga class I want is offered I workout between 4:30 and 6:30 pm.  This pushes my dinner back to about 7 or 7:30, but since my metabolism is up from the workout I figure it's okay.  Workingout after work also helps to relieve a lot of the tension both physical and mental that builds up during the day.  However, this weekend I did my run/walk in the middle of the afternoon, which was odd and bit warmer than I am used to, but it still felt good!  I hope this helps!

All info helps  :) I'm just trying to figure out if any one times seems to benefit over any other.  I was thinking that morning exercise (although mine isn't strictly morning) would rev me up all day...  but the evening exercise makes sense too.  lol  Maybe I should just go walkies all day long!  *hugs*

I take a walk early in ther morning before I start my job. I try to walk again in the evenings. Hugs, connie d

Thanks Connie! Do either of the walks feel better than the other?  More energizing or relaxing? *hugs*

Hi Lori....my morning walk is the best for me. I go early when it is still quiet outside. It is so refreshing and really gets me going for the day.  Alot of people listen to music when they walk. This is my quiet time for prayers and just speaking to God. Hugs....connie d

Lori, Right now I walk/jog on the treadmill either before breakfast or right after.  But I'm going to get back on track, which means after breakfast, after luch, after supper or before bedtime.......I'll mix up the treadmill & home gym......... I feel the one that benefits me the most is the one after supper or before bedtime, it helps me sleep better and seems to help the weight come off better......... Kelly

WOW!  no wonder you look so good  :) I've got a treadmill but the darn thing makes me dizzy to walk on it.  I also get woozy on my stationary bike...  lol  I'm weird, I know  :) Thanks for the input!! *hugs*
