Hey fitties thanks for looking.
Basically I've been lifting for 4 years now. I'm consistent and I've pretty much reached my goal physique and I feel happy and healthy but shit, every single morning when my alarm goes off I have a hundred different ideas about why I should go back to sleep. I'm not quitting any time soon but good lord most mornings I want to! It's bad though, I literally want to cry some mornings and it feels like such a chore to head to the gym- UNTIL I actually get there and I'm a few sets deep when I hit my zone and feel like a beast.
Background info for the sake of a full picture: I go to bed at 10pm every night and I get up at 4am so that seems like enough sleep. I'm eating at maintenance for an end goal of long term body recomp and I lift weights 6 days a week with like 15 minutes of cardio each day as a warm up. I'm 5'7 130lb, 24 years old http://ift.tt/1pXtY9b
THE ONLY thing that helps me in the morning to pep up and not hate the world is listening to motivational speeches on 8tracks ( I have a 45 minute commute to the gym at 4:30 am) somehow they always get me in the right mind set. That and pre-workout- duh couldn't live without it.
TLDR: Basically I wondering what other people do to push past the misery of dragging yourself out a cocoon of warm weightlessness and stay positive in the AM. Is it normal to be so bitter? Like I said, I love lifting and a few minutes into my training I feel incredible but my whole wake-up and drive to the gym are awful and I want to solve this.
Thanks again
