Excuse #2 - I'm too tired!

I hear this excuse all the time. I want to get going, but I just don't have the energy.  I really want to workout every day, but I am too tired when I get home.

We've all been there, but it is important to understand a few key points.

Regular exercise actually increases your energy levels and allows you to be more alert throughout the day.

You need to find a time of day to get your workout in when you are not tired and can give it your all. Whenever your peak time is...hit it and go after it.

Don't put it off.  Schedule your workout for the day and make it non-negotiable.  If you don't have a set time each day that you get your workout in or if you haven't scheduled it then you are much more likely to keep putting it off until you are too tired to get it in!

Most of the time if you are "tired" it is most likely mental fatigue.  You can get through this with your eyes on the prize!  Getting your workout in will help clear your mind and make your brain and body more productive.
