[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Depends on the gym and how crowded it is. For my gym I would go at 6:30 because 5pm is HS bro lifting hour and I don't want to deal with waiting for weights.

We also prefer to eat dinner earlier. I can't imagine starting to cook dinner at 6:30. [/quote]

This was similar to my thoughts too.

It might depend on the gym you go to but at the gym I used to go to peak time was like the after work hours from like let's say 5ish to 7ish?  Finding parking sucked, waiting for equipment sucked, etc.  Once it got to closer to closing time, the gym would be more empty.  I can't do certain workouts later in the day anymore.  They either get me too wired to sleep well and/or my body just feels tired from the day and doesn't feel like working out.  Cardio workouts are fine and I actually sleep really well right afterwards.

In my younger days I may have been able to eat and then go workout.  But I wouldn't be able to do that anymore, unless you're not really working out.  I think the general rule is to wait for an hour or two after you eat.

The working out as a couple and can kind of go both ways.  On some days when we tried to work out together, we'd end up getting in big fights with people around us laughing.  Due to wanting to workout a certain way, getting in each other's way, etc.  So in some ways it works out if we just go together and do our own thing in the allotted time.  You could argue that we might as well just go to the gym seperately then.  But for a while that was our weekend morning routine and it was nice to head out and enjoy our day together after hitting the gym.[/quote]
