Have a Plan
Like most ADHDers, you probably hate structure - especially when it comes to working out and doing other "chores." So feel free to add some flexibility to your structure by scheduling not one but several workouts during any given 24-hour period. For example, you might schedule your weekend workout for 10 a.m., 1 p.m., and 3 p.m. Saturday, and 11 a.m., 2 p.m., and 5 p.m. Sunday. That's six chances. Odds are, you'll make one of them.
If you told yourself that you would exercise before the end of the day, don't allow yourself to bag it. Even if it's 11:30 p.m., you still have time. If it's impossible to go outside or make it to the gym, run in place or do some jumping jacks or pushups. Your goal is to end the day saying, "I did what I said I would do!"
