Cock-a Doodle Doo!

Good Morning Sunshine!

If your days are packed and the evening hours are just as hectic, try getting to LVAC in the morning instead.  Is that groaning I hear?  No way!

You know that old saying, “the early bird gets the worm”?  Well,  I  have little secret for you sleepyheads:   early risers get more than just disgusting old fish bait… early morning work-outs give you an energy boost for the whole ding dong day! Even if you aren’t a morning person, the health benefits of an early morning workout are even better than watching the sun rise!

And if having more energy isn’t enough motivation to crank up the old alarm clock, morning workouts also boost your whole metabolism.  Don’t hit the snooze button (no matter how tempting) and your body will thank you all day.
