What time of day do you avoid the gym?

What time of day do you avoid the gym? No matter if you wanted to workout you wouldnt' bother because of having to deal with too many people.

What time do you feel is the best to workout?

My gym is a zoo 5-7pm.

For me the best time seems to be right before lunch. I've been awake for a few hours, got a solid meal in me, and the day hasn't worn on me yet. I have a nice energy high for the rest of the day and can still go to sleep at night.

Morning 8-11. Any other time it is like a jungle

Same as mine. I also avoid Monday and Tuesday. I have no idea why it's so busy those days. We'd is kind of busy but Thurs-Sun there is virtually no one there. Odd

Monday is officially international chest day.. Every week

i try to hit it with the 5am crew and avoid the 5pm rush hour. Cant even get a bench around 5pm.

Never after 4pm.

Personally I like getting there at 0415. Usually 1-2 people there and the morning crowd doesn't start till I'm leaving.

Went today ~ 6pm. Big mistake. Too much traffic/douchebags. I usually go at 9

Anytime after 4pm is to busy were I go. I go from 6am-7:30am Monday- Friday. This gets me going and doesn't take away from work or family time

Either sit in traffic for an hour or go to gym at 5pm. I hate it everyday. Way to packed, half the people don't know what there doing

It's a zoo Monday- Thursday 5-7

when i was at golds, i pretty much hated going there at any time of the day. after 3, it was a **** show. it was like someone unleashed a box of monkeys in that place. now im training at metroflex. at metro, even at its busiest moment, there isnt that many people there at all. and the ones there are far more knowledgeable than me, have been doing it for longer and are all really cool cats. it always goes one of a few ways A) they leave you alone if you dont want to BS B) they share wisdom and help you out A LOT or C) i finish up my workout and catch myself just hanging out there in the gym bsing with everyone there.

but before that, it was kinda like this.

4-8 in my gym

5-7 at almost every gym. I pass 2 other 24hr fitness locations to go to the one that is least crowded, but the stuff I see at the location is like a comedy club. Only 24hr I have ever been to that has a ping pong table in it. Total asshat gym!
