I had a tough time sleeping last night. I woke up and thought it was 3:30am, so I laid there waiting for my alarm to go off at 4am. After a while when it didn’t go off, I looked at the clock and found that it was only 2:30am. I still had some time to sleep!
I think I couldn’t sleep because I was so excited about doing my pushups and sit-ups. That’s the first thing I do in the morning before I even leave my bedroom. I fall out of bed onto the floor and start my requirements. I found that the carpet is softer in my bedroom and not having the light on adds to the ambience! It’s really good for meditation too.
After my pushups, sit-ups, burpees, and meditation, I move downstairs. I grab a protein shake and knock out some poomsaes, self-defense, kicks, and sparring. I usually save my pull-ups and jump rope for the evening after work and class. After all the BB cycles that I’ve done, I discovered that my best time for requirements is in the morning. I’m way too tired by the end of the day!
I’d be interested to read how others accomplish their requirements. Do you have a set schedule? Do you do them in the same order every day or is every day different? Do you just fit them in when you can? Is it easier for you to do them in the morning or the evening?
