Weekly Spin Playlist

Because of the holidays, my Monday AM Spinning class was cancelled. This was the first week back to my regular schedule, and it felt so good to wake up at 5AM for Spinning...wait...ugh. 

Choosing a time to work out during the day has always been a big personal struggle for me. If I work out in the morning, I get to come home right after work, have dinner by 7:30-ish, and have the rest of the night to relax. But if I try to work out in the morning, I always run the risk of hitting snooze 5 times. And I drag my feet getting ready, so by the time I make it to the gym, I only have a quick 30 minutes to work out before it's time to hit the showers. 

If I work out in the evening, right after work, I usually get a better workout. Plus there's a larger class selection later in the evening. But then I don't eat dinner until closer to 8:30 or 9 and after I eat, all I want to do is hit the sack. 

At the end of the day, I get a better and longer workout in the evening, so that's usually what I stick to.What's your favorite time to work out?

And on that note, here's your weekly Spin Playlist. Have fun!
