    whichever time you can do it.

    I usually workout right after work...or if it's a day off whenever I feel like..

    Just doing your workout, period, is beneficial. Do whatever works for you and your schedule.

    Whatever time you could stick with will be most beneficial. During the week, I workout after work. On weekends, I workout in the mornings.

    We had a class about this one day in the Army. It came down to evening being best in terms of preventing injuries but morning was better for a lot of other reasons. There were a lot of pros and cons for both.

    I like mornings because it gets super hot in rural Ghana really fast, plus the whole rest of the day I feel good about having worked out. But it's personal preference, really.

    If you do it when you feel like you are more likely to stick to the plan because it doesn't become redundant and you can't beat yourself up about sticking to a time frame.
