Best time to work out?

[lat1nacurv3s 0]

When's the best time to work out? I've heard in the morning on an empty stomach. But then others say it really doesn't matter, JUST DO IT! lol :scared2: :rolleyes2:

I may have to agree with the ladder as I'm not a morning person. teehee :scared2:

The best time is the time you will actually do it.

For me that's late afternoon or early evening.

I think whenever it will get done is best. I like late afternoon early evening too - I'm at my most energetic, but lately I've been going out at 6 am because I've been working full time. It's still good, but boy I'm soooooooo tired, even though I would normally get up by 6.15 anyway.

When I'm working, no doubt about it, its safer to go in the morning so its done and cant be put off. but I keep it short and sweet - a quick 30 minute 6km run. If I have time, I will do something else in the evening, if not I dont have to worry.

I don't think the time matters, as long as you are doing it.

But I don't think working out on an empty stomach would be good. When I did a couple of personal trainer sessions I was told to eat something about half an hour before the workout. And if not eat, then at least drink a glass of milk.

Thank you all for your input. The bit about it being on an empty stomach seems to make sense though. I think otherwise one might start feeling ill.
