what time of the day do you workout?

I work out in the morning. I feel energized and pumped afterward and I know i get my work out done. I used to find excuses not to work out in the evenings.

I loved it when I worked out in the AM before work ... talk about starting the day off strong and feeling like you've accomplished something!

You'll notice it is past tense tho because it just doesn't fit into the schedule with the kids and my husband's work schedule.

My job requires a little bit of travel and when I travel, I make it a point of staying somewhere with a workout room and workout in the morning before heading out for business.

One of my excuses for not working out before was that I couldn't get a steady routine or schedule down. I've decided it can still be often, even if it's not part of the routine - I basically squeeze it in where I can - weekends, lunch on the treadmill or around the block, evenings with my wii and mornings at hotels when I travel

It's worked out so much better than I thought and I'm able to get in 3-4 days most weeks and sometimes 5.

The transition can be tough - but stick with it for 3 weeks or so and you'll be all set!

Now go to bed & get your sleep!

I work out at 5 am also. I get up at 430 and leave by 445. I am there when they open the doors so I can get my hour in. My mornings are so hectic as I am a teacher and have to be to work by 7 and really need to be there before that. BUT, I cannot do evenings. I am too tired and I would never go, too many reasons to skip. Plus, I feel good all day long after and I know what I can eat because I already did the workout. Good Luck!

I am pretty lucky to have a workout facility at my work so I work out at lunch time. I can only get in about 45 min, but I make up the rest throughout the day.

I love working out in the morning. It is a real motivator to my day because I have already done something for myself. It sets the tone for healthy eating, water consumption the whole shebang gets set off right when I work out. I have better energy in the afternoon and at night after dinner, I am not a sloth. Hardest part to switching to morning work out was getting to bed a little earlier, but after a week even that worked itself out. Best of luck to you!

When I had a gym membership I worked out in the morning.

Now I have my own set-up in the basement, which is really convenient.

Somedays I work out in the AM, somedays I work out right before bed. Just depends on what's going on. Tomorrow for instance I planned on wokring out in the AM, but I feel I need some more recovery time from today's work out. So I'll work out in the evening, and then tuesday AM is my C25K run, so I'm not using the same muscle groups.

I slightly enjoy AM work outs a little more for one reason. I feel awesome when I get to work and have to listen to the cackling hens in the office talk about how they should go to the gym. (some of them might be reading this. I let them know about this web-site)

Tue and Thu, immediately after work. I have a snack 2 hours before I get there, and 1/3 a protein bar about 45 mins before my workout will begin. I pick up my daughter from daycare and go straight to the gym, meeting my husband there. We work out together (I eat the rest of my protein bar after) and then go home, cook dinner, baths, homework, and my 2nd job. Tue and Fri, I squeeze some gaming time in there too. On Saturdays, I get up, have breakfast (while I make grocery list), work 2nd job for an hour or so, take daughter and go to gym at about 11:00 am. I never get into bed before 12:30 am, so getting up at 5 AM is unthinkable.

I never miss a workout. I consider it as absolute an obligation as paying the mortgage or getting my kids off to school.

i"M trying to somewhat keep up with the bigest loser so i exercise at all times of the day any time i can but me i do think mornings are better for you but anytime is all right its better than none
