Get Up and Get Going!

No matter what schedule you work; your mornings must be productive with regards to your fitness.  You should be waking up and hoping on a piece of cardio equipment or getting your first meal prepared and eaten.  The excuse of “”I need time to wake up” must be put to rest once and for all. If we can wake up at 3 am for a rollover accident on the interstate, then I’m sure we can ride a bike or crack a few eggs in the morning.  The quicker you get your day started, the more your metabolism can be used to your advantage. 

 Getting a light morning cardio session in on an empty stomach is a great way to attack your fat stores for the entire workout.   Mornings are a great time for cardio because you have been fasting all night.  Your body will go right to work using fat as energy since you haven’t eaten in 8 hours. 

If you’re not willing to do a little morning cardio, then get to work in the kitchen.  The sooner you get some food in your system the sooner your metabolism with get turned on.  Eating every few hours will keep your body working hard which keeps calories burning all day without doing any real work (I’m sure your interested now!).  To get lean you must eat early and eat often.  If you can spread your daily calories over 6 or 7 meals instead of three, you will see a vast improvement in your physique.  Don’t have enough time to cook or eat that many meals?  It can be done.  I will give your some tips in an upcoming post.
