I've found that recently I don't have the motivation to work out in the morning, but more so right before I go to bed. Sometimes as late as 11 at night. I was wondering if anyone knew of anything I should watch out for, be aware of, etc....Should I just eat extra calories during the day so I really do exercise at night?

    I always want to work out at night but I'm afraid I'll be energized afterwards. Let me know you if you get tired or energized from those late night workouts...

    When its nice out during the summer I run (jog really) at around 10pm when the sun is going down. The problem is that I feel great afterwards and it takes a long time to settle down and fall asleep.
    What about setting your exercise time for around 9 until 10? Not sure your schedule but a shower and unwind until 11 might work?????

    My personal trainer told me that its best to work out in the mornings. I do both--some days I get up at 5AM and go before work and other days I go after work.

    In the mornings I just put my workout clothes right next to my bed--then I know that I have already worked out and I dont have to worry about "something coming up" or being too tired.l Just try it a couple days:
