My schedule is weird as I work from home and find nights to be my friend so although I am.up at 715am to take my son to school and feed the horses I am back into bed till about 11am. I go to bed most nights/mornings at 2-3 am
So I end up at gym by about 1pm

    It doesn't matter when you go to the gym.

    usually in the morning, but it's really just whenever I can fit into my day

    Whenever I can. Sometimes that's at 6am, sometimes it's at 6pm... or anywhere in between. I don't have the luxury of planning out my days that reliably, so I just try to take advantage when time becomes available.

    I work out at night after the kids are in bed. Usually around 9:30.

    If I don't go before work I've found I don't go. So I'm at the gym by 5:30am at least 4 days a week. That was quite the adjustment for this non-morning person.

    Mid afternoon between 3 and PM, with the exception of Yoga that is a 9AM class.

    I am a morning person, and it's still tough some days to be excited at 445 when the alarm goes off. But I still get up and go to the gym - it works best for me when I get it done before work, because there's so many other things I'd rather do with my after work daylight hours.

    I work from home 8-5 so I could do it anytime, but I like to get it done so I workout 5 a.m.

    I drag myself out of bed at 4:45am and try to start my workout by 5:15am about three days a week, then one day on the weekend I'll do my workout mid-morning or whenever there is time. I started that about two years ago and found that if I get it done before everyone else is up and around then nobody bothers me and I can be more consistent. Not always fun getting up that early but it does make it easier to get things done.

    I go to the gym whenever I have time, Weekdays it's at lunch, weekends it's usually whenever I wake up, but i've got as late as 7pm on the weekends because it doesn't matter what time you go to the gym.

    On days I do yoga at home, I typically get up at 0430 so that the kids aren't up yet to interfere. On Monday and Thursday, I go to the gym in the afternoon after work bc I like the class they have at that time. Saturday, I go to the gym in the morning for the same reason. Tuesdays and Fridays I hit the trail in the afternoon on the way home from work. So, I basically just workout whenever/wherever it's most desirable/convenient at the time.
    The best time to workout is the time when you will do it, and the best workout sequence is also the one you will do.

    The OP didn't ask when was the best time to go to the gym. The title of the posting is "what time of the day you workout."

    I get my run done after dropping the kids off at school. Usually, around 8 am. I like doing it early because then I can shower and go on with my day. I always feel better afterwards even if I don’t feel like doing it. Some mornings are a real battle to do it, but I tell myself just to start and see how I feel once I’ve started. I’ve never quit after starting!

    I exercise on weekdays in the late afternoon, sometimes late into the evening (like 7-8 p.m.) Weekends or days off I wake up around 6:40-7:00 in the morning and finish my workout at 9 in the morning.

    After work. I'm a late person, and find that my energy builds thru the day. Like working out when I feel the most energetic and thats around 4:30 to 6 in evening.
