What makes you ask this? I work out at lunch- fortunate to have a decent gym nearby that work pays for half the membership cost. Husband is not so lucky so he works out at night, after the kids are in bed, at the county rec center.

Because it seems that most posters are doing all of the child care duties themselves and not able to work out in the evenings/mornings. I just wonder if it is mainly single parents who are parenting alone.

Ah, I understand now. I don't know when I would work out in the mornings. I get up at 5am (it was 4.30am when I was still pumping) and leave for work at 5.45am, with an hour commute downtown for a start time of 6.45am. When I get home, after all is said and done, I have NO energy to work out. It's easier for me to work out over lunch mentally than to do it after a long day; the gym at work is a 2 min walk from my office. I'd have to haul myself into the car and drive to the rec center (lazy, I know) if I worked out in the evening.

Yikes! I'm an AM or PM exerciser, but my commute is either nothing, as I can WFH, or I go in tot he office which is a 15min commute. So compare me to you, I get an extra 1.5-2hrs more time that I don't spend on the road..and that is how I find time to work out outside of lunch (though I do sometimes run or something like that at lunch).

I still could not get my AM/PM gym time in without the help of my husband, no matter the commute.

During weekdays, I work out in the evenings after the kids are in bed. Twice a week (wednesday evening and Saturday morning) I have a pilates session at the gym.
