Hey Everyone,:bigsmile:

I was wondering when you prefer working out.
Do you like to workout in the:
- morning
- afternoon
- later on in the day

If so, why? Is it due to time constraints, etc.?
I personally enjoy working out later in the day, around 8ish when the sun is low and it isn't as hot out.:tongue:

M.:heart:

    I prefer mornings so I can get it out of the way, but not if I have to get up at 5 am to do it before work. So I work out in the evenings on work days and in the morning on weekends.

    I prefer to workout in the morning, but I also love sleeping in. It's a problem.
    On the days I don't work I try to get it in somewhere between breakfast and lunch. Let my breakfast digest a little bit, do the work out, then I usually make myself a smoothie high in protein (hemp protein powder + greek yogurt = 36g of protein).
    On the days that I work, if I can't get myself out of bed early enough, I just do it when I get home before dinner.

    Around noon-ish for me! It's a nice break away from the office. I seem to be more productive and focused for the remainder of the day.

    I do m 30 Day Shred in the mornings because I work 2 jobs and won't be home until late in the evening.

    I also workout during my lunch break at the gym at work where I do my cardio. I only do the extra cardio M-F as my work gym is only open on week days. I have contiplated getting a gym membership by my home so I can still workout on the weekends.

    It is too blazing hot here in Phoenix for us to do any cardio outside until fall finally comes. :(

    First thing in the morning *and* end of the evening :) Never in the middle of the day.

    Around 10am works good for me. I am a lazy starter in the morning. That gives me time to check my emails, have a coffee, breakfast, do some house work, get the kids ready,and then head to the gym.

    Hello! :o} I enjoy working out in the morning because it wakes me up and gives me more energy for the day. I also like to work out before I have to get dressed because that is a job alone! :o] Then once your day is over (work ect.) you can just relax and dont have to talk your tired self into working out.

    During the week when I work, I go in the evenings around 7. Then on Saturdays, I go to the gym in the morning.

    Always late. I don't like a crowded gym and I'm definitely not a morning person. My wife and I usually go around 9-11pmish
