Article: Training in the evening gives you more muscles, m

Your testosterone levels are higher in the morning so this does not make any sense. Unless you are on steroids.

The ration of test to cortisol is what they meant.

Cortisol is also very high in the morning apparently while in the evening it is much lower. So while test might be lower in the evening, the difference is marginal while the cortisol difference is significant.
 
I wish the diet they took in was costant. We don't know what the AM groups calories were in comparison to the PM group.... Also supplementation too. AM group could be natti vs PM group running low dose test. In my mind that would account for the PM group losing fat and gaining muscle since they are trained subjects

Well, I would hope the researchers knew to balance out the groups to evenly spread the results. This would only make sense. But even at random, what r the odds that all of the guys in one group were enhanced while the others were not?

Don't know but with that small of a group it wouldn't of taken a lot of enhanced lifters to throw off the overall results. All the reasons I brought up is probably why it won't ever be published... Too many variables and too small of a group.

Good point. One guy could start his cycle at the beginning and pack on 10-12lbs of lean mass in that time frame..
 
Being one who suffers with poor adrenals, I need the nights to lift harder. My cortisol is extremely high in the morning but very weak as well. I need the nights and it has worked wonders on my physique.
 
Perhaps genetics, diet and goals would dictate the various timing in the workout.

Evening isn't best for all schedules and goals. Generally, I prescribe to the rule of change more so than anything. Just change it up occasionally.

Apply what has worked for others and if it doesn't work for you than move on and try something else.
 
This **** doesn't have to be complicated. Just pick a program, stick with it and aim for progression. Keep your diet in check and strategically adjust your macros. It's a marathon not a race. This is why so many people jump on gear. Everything is about being the best the fastest these days. I promise you morning lifting versus night probably won't make a huge difference. we all have busy schedules just get in there when you can
 
I tend to better lifting in the late afternoons/early evening myself. Everyone is different. Just do what works best for you. And I usually follow it up with some cardio as well.
