It usually takes me about 20 minutes to warm up first thing in the morning, depending on the workout.

Ugh, I could never work out in the evenings. I'd be up til 1am...

Yep working out in a fasted state is great!

Couldn't disagree more. Work out in AM, feel the high all day, still sleep well at night.

Plus, I eat a lot better during the day if I exercised that morning.

Sounds like I do need to invest more time in my warm-up then.

You've got to find a warm-up routine that works for you. Whether that is a few minutes on a treadmill or

Dynamic warmups are must. Static Stretching can help too despite what Slim says

I'm opposite. Nothing(except maybe a few things) better than a morning pump that lasts for the better part of the day.

I start my workout every night somewhere between 930 or 1030, so I’m with you.

Just go late.

Yeah but it ties up your evening unless you are choosing to not be consistent. Easier to man up take a scoop of pre

I consistently go between 9:30 and 10:30pm.

I'm also not sure what kind of workout you're doing that allows you to go to sleep

Cheesy Gordita

Maybe he doesn’t go to bed super soon. Same time I work out but I don’t sleep till like 1am
