This might sound weird but one thing that's helped me stick to workouts is that I used to workout before I take a shower, whenever that might be, morning, evening doesn't matter. The thought behind it was since I'm going to shower anyway, might as well break a sweat for it lol

I work out around 8pm. It's really the only time I have and its worked out well for me for the last 3 years since losing 80lbs.

I personally, get up at 5 am and workout from preferably and approximately 5:10 to 6:10 or 6:15 am. I like to get in an hour before I leave at 7:10! It's so early and when I first get up I really want to roll back over and go to sleep, but then when I get home from school I feel so so good because I don't have to dread the workout. Don't get me wrong, I love to workout because if I didn't I wouldn't be doing it. I love how it makes me feel and look. My motivation to get up so early comes from the feeling of if I don't do it I dread it all day because I'm worried about when I'll fit it in between homework and housework, also I need some time to procrastinate doing anything obviously. 😂 find motivation, get up and get it done!

I work out around 10-11 at night. That's when I have the most energy and then after that I can sleep easier lol:)

I work out first thing in the morning right after waking up. I eat breakfast after I complete my workout. If I don't work out in the morning I feel sluggish the whole day and tend to reach for junk food stuff. But It's a pain in the ass to wake up early in order to fit a workout in especially if you had a late night (story of my life). But after working out I feel amazing. Thanks for the great videos FB! You guys are amazing. Thanks for being so genuine and friendly :)

I like working out in the morning, it's the alarm clock that i don't like 🙅

I exercise in the evening after work around 6-7 pm because it fits my schedule. I have to leave early in the morning to avoid traffic jam so morning workout is not ideal. it's a good thing too exercising in the evening for me, to de-stress after a long day but during weekends, if I have the chance I work out in the morning.

I workout in the afternoon between 1 and 3 pm.. That's the only time when I can, plus I feel like I have the most energy at that time :)

[maiselkristen]

Am I the only one that works out at night? Lol. I work out around 8-9:30. I'm a working mom and that's the only time I can get it in. Because nap time means get cleaning done and coming home from work means getting more stuff done and getting dinner cooked.

Hi Kelli and Daniel,
I'm a nursing student and work nights at a hospital as a nurse's aide part time.  Since I'm such a night owl, usually my days start and end a little later.  I tend to work out at night, even as late as 130am.  When I have days off from school and work, such as in the summer, I work out whenever I feel like it.  I find that instead of setting an exact time to exercise everyday, and just committing myself to doing it at some point, I'm more likely to get it done.  Love your videos :) <3

Hands down, best workout videos and information about fitness on youtube! You guys are amazing!!!

Personally I'm new to working out my theory is if I don't do a workout first thing in the morning to develop those habits I won't do it but on a positive note anytime your getting up and moving rather than sitting on the couch your benifeting no matter what the time of day love the kick boxing and cardio videos btw

I really like that you don´t give the notion of "guilt" when you have a certain excersise regime. Intsead, you give general advice on the overall that actually helps. Many trainers say that you need a certain time to work out in order to loose weight or give you the notion that if you excersise or eat at a certain point then it´s "bad" but really it depends on each individual. That´s why I love your channel, your workouts and basically everything. :)

I can exercise any time of the day. I have to confess that when it's around 22-00h I always get so energic and I really don't know why, I always feel like going out for a run haha But I never do cause it's way too late for me. I like to exercise in the morning for the same reasons as Kelly does. It makes me feel better about myself and helps me to control my meals. But I also like to exercise in the afternoon or evening cause it's when I have more energy and don't feel kinda... sick? My stomach gets a little sick in the morning. But it all depends on my routine. If I wake up too late, I exercise later. If I wake up early, I eat something, wait for a while and start exercising. It really doesn't matter that much to me as long as I exercise and eat healthy :)

I love how you type out the answer too! :) Sometimes I find it faster to just read the summary

To me the perfect time is from 10am to 1pm. I noticed it's the moment of the day in which I feel more energy. Who knows why... It's also perfect to me since my breakfast is perfectly digested and right after that I can have a good refilling lunch :)

The sentence "when you are most likely to actually do it" comes back to my mind very often. It is a real motivation for me.

[CarolynnMarkey]

I like working out right in the morning! It gets it out of the way, done with, so I can do everything else without having to worry about getting that in. Loved this video :)
