Morning workouts, any ripped/big dudes doing them?

[SlevinsBrother]

Trying to talk myself into getting up at 4:45 and heading to the gym... But I know evening training is better.
But, I think that might only apply to natural people.

Would love some opinions or anecdotal evidence that you can get big working out fifteen minutes after you get out of bed (roughly).

Tuesday-Friday the wife and I wake up at 4am, in gym by 5am, train for an hour and a few. Saturdays & Mondays we train at 9am...I will not train at prime time, too much bullshit at that time.

Safe to say you're a big guy? Don't know your stats and haven't seen photos. I know people train in the a.m... Just want to find out if people have gotten "hyuuge" doing so.

Nah...I am 5'2", 155lbs wet, and been training 6 months...you are a funny guy!!! Morning time is when natural test levels are highest and it has been proven that morning workouts are pretty damn effective. Honestly, it is what you put into your workout which will yield your gains...that and your nutrition of course.

Don't have that much advice on this one... I'm not a morning person AT ALL. Years ago in the prime of my training, the wife and I did the early morning training and it just about wiped me out for the rest of the day. Lost motivation and the "fun" of a good heavy workout, so we changed back to strictly late afternoons, evenings, and weekends.

I'm not a morning person. Never have been. Unless its for sex, shooting, fishing in that order....fuck off!
That said my pseudo wife works out at 5 am cause she works 70 hrs a week in addition to working out 5-6 days a week.
She's in insane shape! I'm helping her with a few things. She's doing a masters show soon!
They say guys test is higher in am.
I say it's all bullshit. Work out what fits u and your schedule best! Even starring out the pseudo wife's epic Latina ass won't get me out of bed before 5 am......maybe if she let me play with her ass I would lol.

Re: Morning workouts, any ripped/big dudes doing them?

Ugh.
We'll MA is a good motivator I guess; pretty much everything I've ever read says cortisol sucks in the a.m. and so does your strength. I was hoping that shit only applied to natty's.

MA, any pictures on the forum of your physique? I've seen tons who are "willing" to do morning workouts but they all look like crap, sadly. Not a good sign.

Re: Morning workouts, any ripped/big dudes doing them?

And MA, why would you/I care about morning T levels? Doesn't us not being natural make that sort of a moot point? Just asking.

Re: Morning workouts, any ripped/big dudes doing them?

I think the key to working out right after you wake up is to make sure you get some food in you before you go to the gym. I'm not sure about natural daily hormonal patterns throughout the day but a little tne at 6 before I smash legs helps me doing anything! I like working out early because I have the rest of the day to eat, rest, and grow.

Yes it is a mute point lol...just threw that tidbit of info out there.

Re: Morning workouts, any ripped/big dudes doing them?

Pictures were up long enough...not here to prove anything to anyone...

Hitting gym now after I drop off my little angel at school with the wifey, like IG said, blah...blah...what works for you, blah...blah...sex, blah...blah...pseudo girlfriends ass playing, blah...blah...you get the picture . Cortisol can be controlled by pre & post workout carbs and protein consumption, vitamin C, and BCAA's during training...just do what you feel is best for you.

Re: Morning workouts, any ripped/big dudes doing them?

I like to go early because that's when I have the most energy. This way I don't blow it off later because I'm tired from work or whatever.
