Summary

Is there an ideal time of day to work out, or does it all depend on your lifestyle? In this episode, we dive into the world of afternoon and evening workouts, especially for those who just can’t get moving in the morning.

 

I also explore the bonus benefits of evening workouts, like transforming leftover stress into relaxation but, of course, it’s not all perfect – I tackle the common challenges of evening exercise, from disrupted sleep to schedule clashes and that creeping sense of losing motivation as the day winds down.

 

Whether you’re rethinking your workout schedule or looking to optimize your current routine, this episode is packed with practical advice to help you find the best fit.

 

I also discuss:

 

(00:27) Pros and Cons of Afternoon Workouts

(10:10) Understanding the Cons of Evening Workouts

(12:39) Managing Workout Motivations in Seasons

(19:35) Choosing the Best Workout Time

 

and more!
