Don't know if you use any, but intraworkout carbs/electrolytes/sodium make a big difference. I use Dextrose + Nunn hydration tabs.

Yeah I'd imagine some intraworkout nutrition would have probably helped get thru the latter portion of the workout, but for now just going to get used it. Also split up my weekly volume over 5 days rather than the 4 I did previously just so I don't fuk with my sleep schedule on the weekdays by having an odd day where I wake up later than usual and not go to the gym.

Workouts are good, hardest part is waking up

-Some people say good things come to those who wait, truth is, good things come to those who work..... who work later.....who work harder...... who are willing to go further than anyone else to get them. If you're waiting for good things to come to you, you'll be waiting for a pretty long time.

-I'd rather live life saying "I failed" than "I could have"

The only negative of morning training is that it takes a bit for your body to feel awake and ready to go. A quick walk on the treadmill is always a good idea (something I need to start doing again)

More energy in the morning, and the satisfaction knowing it's done for the day and the whole evening is yours to enjoy. Also - it's nice starting your day with something enjoyable, instead of work, lol.

EDIT: ^^ can confirm, am a boring old Fuk, lol. I'm passing out by 9pm.

Both of these, but the boring old **** part was inevitable. A 10 minute walk around the block usually wakes me up enough to get going, but it's a miracle if I stay up past 9:30 anymore.
