Hi All,

I'm wondering how long folks spend in the gym for a single workout, and when is your favorite time to do it? I like to keep mine to 45 minutes or so, and tend to prefer doing them in the morning.

45 mins to 1 hour sometimes longer.Like Joe said depending on what I'm doing that day.Never under 45 mins though.

Some define themselves by their education or their career...Others define themselves by their salaries and material acquisitions...but whatever it is, I choose to define myself by my passions

I usually train around 11am and my workouts usually last about an hour and a half, sometimes 2 hours if I'm training chest, triceps and calves.

Don't know how you guys can manage that early lol. 7 p.m. for me. Usually from 45-75 mins depending.

The worst I can be is the same as everybody else.

afterschool for me, 2-3 pm till about 4-430, it differs because I don't always get there at the same time. I'm showing my friend my routine now so I have to explain a lot of stuff so the workouts have been taking me longer, so like an hour and a half usually, cardio three times a week makes it longer too.

I lift at 7am and I only lift for 40-45 minutes. Intesity is key for me and after 40 minutes I am totally fatigued and ready to rest!
