Back in high school I lifted weights a few times per week with a friend of mine. One day a third friend named Jason joined us. But it would only be for a single session.
"I can't workout unless I'm motivated," Jason said. "I need to listen to the music from Rocky."
My friend had a good laugh at his expense, but my first thought was: So what?
If Jason had to hear Eye Of The Tiger to get psyched up, was there anything wrong with that?
If it works, do it.
I work out in the morning. Always. And I usually recommend the same for everyone else. But if you find you can only get rolling in the evening " go for it.
Some people need to eat a little before training, and some can only go on an empty stomach. Some of my best workouts were when I was feeling hunger pangs.
I also like a warmer gym. Some people like to blast the air conditioning. I like heavy clothing when exercising, others go for spandex.
The key idea is to do what works for YOU. Figure out what kind of atmosphere, schedule, and clothing helps you stay in shape as easily as possible.
And of course listen to some Gonna Fly Now too. - 15438
