I was wondering if it makes a difference if you workout in the morning or at night. I usually work out around 6 pm. But would it be better if I woke up a bit earlier to workout before i start my day? Or does it not matter when I workout, just as long as I do workout

    The simplest answer is that it's best to work out when you're most likely to keep it up.

    i always found it's best to work out around your biggest meal... so if that is dinner then work out before or after... or breakfast.... so on and so on...

    there is no real scientific fact that this is the best thing to do - its a personal preference and gives me peace of mind about eating a bigger meal

    I've heard it's better in the morning, but I'm not sure, either. I do mine between 7 and 9 am. If I had energy in the evening, I would do a quick one then, too. I am just too pooped by the end of the day. I also feel like I eat better and feel better physically when I work out in the morning. I'm very conscious of everything that goes into my body.

    Time of day does not make much of a difference, so the best time of the day to workout is whatever works best for you. (best fit for your schedule)

    I agree with a previous post, it's whenever you have the time to get it in...I like to mix them up and keep my body guessing, today 3 hours early morning on an empty stomach..no haters please, this works for me :wink: , if I eat first I puke, nuff said. tomorrow will be an evening workout, Wednesday morning...I work out 4 days of mornings and 3 days evenings. Whaever works for you and whatever your body seems to respond to.

    it does make sense to change it up and keep your body guessing
