    I am a "9 to5" not that there is such a thing anymore. But I wake up at 4:30am to go to the gym. I go first thing in the morning not only because it gets me going, but also when I get home from work between 6:30-7 I would find too many excuses not to get to the gym. The bottom line you have to do what works for you. Everyone has different demands to manage.
    Good luck with the change!

    I don't need to be at work until 8, but I am up no later than 5 to walk with my dog before I start the day. For me, it's easier to do things in the morning. I don't go to a gym, but on days like today I bike to work, which takes me about half an hour. Then when I get home, between 5:30 and 6, I walk with the dog again. Our walks are usually around 30- 40 minutes, and I'm finding that the morning one is faster than the evening one. On the days that I don't bike, I walk on the treadmill enough to make up a full hour of exercise for the day. Bike days give me well over an hour of exercise, so no need to work on the treadmill those evenings. I'm in bed before 9 every night.
