"I am out of bed by 5:30 a.m. and have a good
cup of coffee before my morning workout.”
"I already packed a gym bag the night before
and I keep my swim gear in my car at all times.
I’m in the water at 5:15 a.m.”

6. I try to experiment with swimming
or running for max 30 min,
before heading to the office.
Should you kickstart the day with a workout?
