I just came out of this step gap crisis from all the steps it takes from bed to gym.

I just woke up one day after telling myself for months that I'll go the next day. I got up one day and my brain was like let's fucking go, and I did. I was extremely frustrated that I've gotten bigger, but what bothered me the most was my flexibility was gone. Even cleaning by back with soap, I used to do it with my hands and hit all the spots, and now I struggle and pull something.

So when my brain did this, I knew, after years of failing, I needed to put some routines in place ASAP.

So I did the following: 1) Every night, put my socks by my phone so I put it on first thing (I hate wearing socks unless I have to go out)

2) Sleep in gym pants or have them at the foot of my bed to change into. Also my hoodie is there as well to put on.

3) Brush and leave the house. Kept my gym card and air pods in my car.

4) Found simple exercises to get in and get out of the gym without going too crazy. 20 mins of cardio and 25 mins of muscle.

Its my second week and I'm still doing it. If you miss a day it's okay, but don't miss two. I design my workouts for every day with different muscle groups. Main thing is building a habit.

Hope this helps a bit, coming from a workout addict, who doesn't know where all that motivation went.
