Best time to go to the gym I recently started to go to the gym, trying to be toned instead of just skinny by bikini season like most of the ladies on here. But with my varying schedule I never have a concrete time set. Sometimes I go at 6 am, sometimes I go at 3 in the afternoon but I generally go 6 to 7 days a week. I recently found the best time to go, because I live on campus and that's where my gym is, I've found out most fats skip during meal times. Dinner most nights is 5-7, and the gym is always fat free. Lunch is 12-2, once again fat free. This is great for me because I usually only eat one or the other. Unfortunately they're usually there in the mornings I am because I can't make t during breakfast time because I'm getting ready for classes. This is just a tidbit for any shitlords and shitladies that are at universities and colleges. Hopefully your gym is blissfully empty during meals too!
