Do push-ups now!
Sir, yes, sir!?!?!?!
No, you aren’t reading the instruction manual to Army Boot Camp, just the inner monologue to my out of bed workout. It’s a reminder to do the hard part first.
I remind myself to do push-ups first because they are hard. I can’t meander when I do them because the moment I feel my body weight I can’t avoid it. It immediately gets me active.
After a set of push-ups, I become more mindful of the exercises that follow. My form is better and I don’t waste time.
When I avoid push-ups and push that work to the end, I lose.
