I need to get out on my bike more as I am unfit and a bit podgy. I just cant find the motivation. I dont have masses of time available so early mornings before work are best but I wake up at 5 and think sod it. I know if I actually get out I will enjoy myself and be glad I did I am just struggling to get out of bed. I think the week or two before the clocks changed is what screwed me up with the tease of the nice light mornings and dawn at 05:30 and now it just seems grim.

Apart from MTFU what can I do?

The only thing I can suggest is get all your kit ready the night before then when the alarm go's off just get straight up and changed and out rather than lying there thinking about it.

It is hard to start with but once you've done it a few times it gets easier.

As Kuco says, don't give yourself any excuses, make sure everythings ready to go. And move your alarm away from your bed so you have to get out to turn it off.

I find having a specific goal helps.

I have just downloaded and joined Endomondo. Hopefully my first entry will be in the morning.

I keep saying I will go out tomorrow but tomorrow never comes.
