I am doing good then. I think I am 5 days in to my little routine. Work starts next week, which may through off the schedule, though.

I am also not a morning person, but I assure you that getting up and going early in the morning is the best feeling ever. The best piece of advice I can offer is to work on no snoozing. Set your alarm for a certain time, get up right off, go to the gym and do the rest of your day. Try it for a week. Your motivation will come from exercising your willpower and mind as much as your body. I will warn you, you will be starving if you don't eat after a morning g workout. A hunger like you've never experienced. If you want general toning, look into doing circuits. My gym is a ghost town at 6. I can set up ten lifts/machines, do them all in rapid succession followed by a one minute breather. Rinse and repeat three to five times. Low weight high intensity can also get your heart rate high enough to double as cardio. Thanks for the awesome advice. I'm definitely a snoozer....which is why I arrive to work about 2 minutes until 8 am Another question I was going to ask was about the weight lifting. Unfortunately because I don't stick with going to the gym I have to restart the amount of weight I use frequently. I usually just put enough weight on so that the exercise feels tough but not overbearing. Also I tend to do 12 reps and maybe 3 sets? It just depends on how I feel. Is this a good start? Lately because I don't feel like going to the gym I've been doing Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred, Day 1 lol and it's a good at home work out! She kicks your butt. I just watch them on YouTube on my PS4 and I jam out to music.

The weights do different things depending on how you use them. If you do high weight low reps you build muscle mass and size. If you do low weight high reps you lean out on the muscles and start losing weight.
