Exercise for energy 🔌

This is a topic I often preach about when trying to convince people to take up exercise. Convincing people to join my gym is always an interesting experience . It's when I see grown adults behave most childlike . Whilst some are very submissive and admit to doing wrong neglecting exercise and hang their head in disappointment at themselves , others react defensively . Making endless excuses to why they have no time, they are too busy, they are too tired etc. I hear it all. But when I challenge them with options such as , get up earlier, train at lunch time, do exercise at home, obviously more excuses follow and an image of a small toddler stamping their feet in frustration . It's hard to convince people that actually , when you are tired and feeling low energy, it might actually be because you are not exerting enough energy in the first place. This weekend I did a little training Saturday and none on Sunday. This is the time of the week I feel my most exhausted . I sleep everywhere. If I lie down im like one of those dollies with movable eyes, they just shut. I wonder how during the week I can wake at 6am and finish the day of work and training at 9pm and still feel energetic when I get home. The truth is, I need exercise to give me energy. If I don't run in the mornings , I feel so lethargic . I need buckets of coffee to stay awake. But if I run, it's like a energy hit . The adrenaline and alertness is the best coffee you can get. It lasts hours and then encourages the consumption of food that will extend energy levels even further . I like to get a protein shake with banana and avocado after my morning training. It's the best feeling to me. When I was in Thailand there was nothing more satisfying than training Muay Thai at 7am and getting a fresh passion fruit shake afterwards.
I always encourage morning exercise, i depend on it to survive the day! The phrase 'I'm not a morning person' doesn't exist if you train before you speak to anyone in the morning .
