They say getting out of bed is the hardest part – but if you’ve ever mustered up the willpower to drag yourself out of bed for an early morning workout, you know that each decision you face in those first few moments can be a challenge.
If you haven’t taken the time to plan your morning workout routine in advance, coming up with a plan in those first few moments of your day often takes considerably more time than it should.
What workout should I do in the morning?
This is a question many of us find ourselves contemplating – often way later than we should. Without deciding on our morning exercise in advance, it’s much easier to skip it altogether.

Each day has a different combination of exercises for you to complete in the morning. You’ll work your way through different morning workouts each day, and the best part: they all take less than 10 minutes to complete at home.

Why is it so hard to work out in the morning?
