    Anywhere between the hours or 5:30am-8:30am. Wake up and do the grind! I've found it's so much easier waking up and getting my workout complete,and then going on about the rest of my day!

    My sleeping pattern is all out of whack so I usually get up around 3 or 4am and can't get back to sleep. So, I do my workout at that time. Puts me right back to bed.

    I work out whenever it's convenient. I figure the important thing is that I'm working out.

    Up at 05:45 on Monday / Wednesday and Friday ..... a small breakfast and then I'm at the gym and on the treadmill for around 06:40am.

    Start with a 5km run (sometimes a little more) ... then move to arms and upper body weights .... 8-10 mins on the cross trainer and then a final 1km cool down on the treadmill again.

    That takes me anywhere from an hour to an hour and a quarter with a calorie burn of 800-1000 calories

    (244lbs / 180cm tall).

    Weekends ..... 1 long run at 7am on a Saturday of around 12 miles .... then sleep for most of the rest of the day :-)

    I workout at the end of my day. I am not a morning person! I'm grumpy when I wake and can't seem to find the motivation to workout so early. Doing it this way, I can also view my intake and burn any unwanted calories that day. Just doing what works for me :)

    at about 8pm.. It's when it's busy, but not too busy, and all the douche bags have left, yet people that are serious about gym are still there.

    Depends on the workout. I lift weights after getting off of work, so about 7:30 in the morning (I work third shift). I run after waking up about 2 hours after breakfast, so usually around 5 or 6 in the evening.

    Depends on what shift I'm working. My workout days are Monday-Thursday mandatory, and optional Friday.
    If I'm working 12pm or later I'll go in the morning, or if I start before noon I'll go about 6-7pm. If I'm not working at all I'll go about 2pm.
    I find my work out is much easier if I go later on in the day, but sometimes it just makes sense to go earlier. I do love finishing work and just being able to come home and not have to worry about needing to go to the gym!
