What time of day do you usually work out? - Page 4

I voted 6-8pm. I have one full time and one part time job but I am usually home between 6-7pm. Literally the first thing I do is greet family, get changed, do my workout.

It's the first thing I do when I get up whether it's a work day or not. On an off day if I start doing other things first, I get antsy a few hours later.

My work schedule varies, but 75% of the time mornings are best. Occasionally, yoga & warm shower before bed to help with sleep.

DH works out in the morning.

I'm glad I'm not alone!!! I love weights but HATE working my legs. I'm actually thinking about hiring a trainer just to push me on my leg days. It sounds crazy but I'm that bad!

My workouts usually take place in the late morning. I am sooooo not a morning person and bow down to those of you who can get started before the sun rises.

Between 4 and 6 pm on weekdays and in the morning on Saturdays or if I have a Saturday morning appointment, whenever I can.

I walk ~ 7-8 am, have coffee and then do my workout around 9am.

I am another early morning - @4:30 or so wake-up time. I had to adjust to this when I first shifted to mornings (@ 15 years ago), but w/work it is the only way to get the workout in consistently, and now I am just used to it. I am a morning person, but I would prefer to have a bit more time for a cup of tea, etc before working out.

I just voted "whenever I can", but it should be "scattered throughout the first half of the day.
I have a very early morning job that gets me out of bed at 4 am and on my bicycle, riding around the neighborhood delivering newspapers. I have my phone with me and it usually registers ~5000 steps, so I count that in as part of my daily cardio (6 days a week). At 8 am I go for a short walk with a neighbor. After a short rest and some chores, I like to do my 20-40 minute workout. I aim to be done with all that by 1 pm so I'm showered and dressed before my daughter gets home from school.

The majority of the time I work out between 8 and 10 AM. But if my husband wakes me from snoring, ha ha, I will hit the cycling class at the Y at 6 am. And then at times I go to the gym in the evening with my daughter so she can get in a workout.
