    Its different for everyone. My cousin lives for those 5:30am workouts. Me...not so much! lol I do my exercise before lunch and then again after dinner. I always sleep soo well after a hard workout at night. Maybe up your protein too!

    I have the same problem - morning exercise means I don't do anything else all day because I am completely spent. I have been told that my issue is related to inefficient conversion of calories to energy - related to insulin issues stemming from my PCOS. Solution for me is just to exercise at night.

    I am hoping that this will improve as I continue to get healthier.

    Morning exercise works really well for me, but we're all different so you're going to have to experiment to see what is best for you.
    It sounds to me as though you aren't getting enough sleep - try going to bed at 9.30 for a few weeks and see if this makes a difference.
    And, are you eating enough? If you're exercising hard and not taking in enough energy (calories) that could be the cause of your lack of energy.
