This routine worked well for me for the last few months:

6:30 wake up, make coffee + read a book while drinking my coffee

7:00 get dressed and leave to go to the gym or for a walk

7:30-8:30 exercise

8:30 - 09:00 shower + make breakfast

09:00 start work (remotely)

I feel much more fulfilled when I get some non-work reading and exercise done before a work day. Sometimes I sleep in, but then end up regretting it.
