I'm not exactly sure what's wrong with me, but I just cannot seem to get up to exercise. On Monday I really had no excuse, since I woke up before my alarm went off, but then managed to talk myself out of going to strength training.
I went to bed on Monday night bound and determined to wake up on Tuesday and go swimming. I even said as much to the friends we had over for dinner. Well, when my alarm went off yesterday morning, I was about as far away from awake as possible. I felt immensely tired so I just flipped off the alarm and slept for another hour and a half.
Today, though. Today was the day. I would get up and go to strength training! My alarm went off and I hit snooze a couple of times (as you do), all the while thinking, yay, I'm getting up soon to go to class! Just a few more minutes.
But apparently I fell back asleep after the last snooze. I woke up 10 minutes after class started.
On the upside, I've managed to get in long walks both Monday and Tuesday, but I really want to get back into the strength training. I guess my body is more interested in sleep. Yeah, that's nice and all, but at some point, I need to work out.
I've been waking up naturally at around 6:30 or 7. I wish I didn't have to work normal office hours, because if I could go to the gym at 7:30, I have a feeling it would happen a lot more often than when I have to go at 6:30. Or maybe I would just go to bed an hour later.
Maybe the moral of this story is that I need to go to bed an hour earlier. Because I'm an old lady.
