Morning workout or Night workout? what do you do?

Morning workout for me. I get up 4:30/4:45 and workout at home doing T25. I could wake up later, but after I have to sit for a while to get a bit more coherent- drink coffee, watch the news.
I’ve tried working out after work but once I get home I get really lazy and just want to unwind.

I workout at night once my son goes to bed. I am not a morning person and right now have to be at work by 830. No matter how many times I try to get up earlier to workout I always end up snoozing. It works well for me most nights I have a 5 workout a week goal. I am generally arriving at the gym at 9pm and working out for 45 mins. I also prefer to shower/ take a bath at night I have always used it to help me relax and I like to go to bed clean so this works for me

4 AM.

I get a workout just from re-racking the weights from the lazy night lifters.

I am NOT a morning person. I guess if I want to do something outdoors, it's got to be before the sun goes down - so late afternoon, typically. Otherwise, if I going to the gym, it's late at night usually. I've got the place all to myself...

Both... gym in a morning, crossfit evening or sometimes morning, swim either/or... no rhythm to it just whatever fits with my day. However... I find that do a swim first thing is more of an effort - seems to be easier later in the day.

During the week I workout around 8pm. I have a long commute and leave house at 6:15am and get home between 6:30-7. It's tough going so late but plus is gym is not crowded. When I move closer to work I will go around 6pm. I may try mornings but in past i found I can't get in a full good workout becsuse Im rushing. Also, I need a good 15-20 to warm my body up so I need about an hour & a half workout time

I float back and forth between early workouts and evening workouts. I don't like to stick to a set way of doing things for too long. I like to switch up my algorithms from time to time. That said my preference would be smack bang in the middle of the day however that's not possible with my schedule. I will say morning workouts has it's perks, one being you've accomplished the hardest probable task you're likely to encounter for the day before most people have even showered. That should make you a pleasant person to be around at work.

When the weather isn't all snowy and frozen out, I like to take the dog for a walk at around 6am. I then work out of my home office, so I usually use half of my lunch hour to do a quick 30 minutes in my home gym I've put together. Lastly, I do another 60-90 minutes at around 8 or 9 in the evening, depending on what I have going on at the time. I try to never get in a situation where I'd have to start later than 9pm.

Up at 4:45, working out by 5:30 for about 90 minutes, then i get ready for work and workout is done for the day. I tried night/evening workouts and it just doesn't work. Always a thousand reasons not to get it done. In the mornings nobody has piled anything on me yet and it's quiet and I can concentrate and have a great workout. I work out at home or by running/walking so no need to spend time commuting to the gym. If I had to switch back to evening workouts I'd probably get none of it done. I've recently dropped to 4 workouts a week from 5, and will probably go back up to 5 time permitting in the summer, but it means that only 3 days a week do I have to get up that early as long as one of my workouts is on the weekend.

It really depends on the season for me. Weekday morning workouts during winter just seem too harsh. Often I’ll do a lunch workout and one after work if I split them out. Otherwise early evening workouts. In summer am workouts I don’t mind.

After dinner on weekdays or during the afternoon on weekends.

Swimming: morning
Biking inside on the trainer: late afternoon or evening
Biking outside: morning going into the afternoon depending on how long I'm riding for

The swimming thing is primarily an issue of scheduling and preference. When do I have time and when am I the least likely to have to share my lane. Biking inside is more an issue of habit and and to an extent how tired I am. As much as I would like to think that I can easily force myself out of bed and on to the bike, that is frequently not the case. In terms of timing, biking outside is dependent on how hot it's supposed to be, where I'm biking, how many people I expect will be out riding, etc.

On weekdays I work out after work, which ends up somewhere between 5-7pm. On the weekends it's usually late morning between 9-11am.
