I started working out religiously from 9-10:00 pm. My daughter goes to bed at 8-8:30 so if I wait until later then I don't have that pressure to rush her through things thinking "C'mon! I still need to work out!" And I was never able to get up and do it in the AM. So, I just put it on hold until 9 and do it then.
This is an oddity though - I like to work out to videos that have dark windows in the background so it seems like the whole workout is happening at night. The only bummer is that drinking a lot of water at 9:30 at night means for two or three trips to the bathroom later on! |

This is all so interesting to me as
I am totally a night person trying to pass as a morning person. With four kids under age 9 and working at home in whatever time I can find, it just got to the point where if I didn't get it in in the a.m, it just wasn't going to get done. But trying to make this transition still feels unnatural and I have to go with the natural urge to go to bed; if I don't, I'll have that second wind and be up until 3 a.m. no problem. And then I won't be able to get up to work out (at 6). I imagine when my kids are older and I have my own schedule more or less, I will gravitate toward later workouts.
