I lift weights every weekday morning (blessed to have a gym in walking distance from the office), and do martial arts on weekends.

Lifting heavy things before I head to work lets me sit still longer without getting all twitchy because I've spent some energy. It also keeps me from murdering some of my coworkers some days (ha!) It helps my mental capacity as well, I feel sharper and more apt to solving problems.

:) Another reason why I like morning workouts. Mentally, I feel a lot better after completing it!
