Picked the 9pm gym slot over the 6am rush and it changed everything

I used to drag myself to the gym at 6am because that's what everyone said you're supposed to do. After 3 months I was just miserable and barely going twice a week. Switched to 9pm after work about 2 months ago and I'm up to 5 sessions a week now. The place is basically empty, no waiting for the squat rack, and I actually look forward to going. Has anyone else found that the "best time" isn't actually the best time for them?

Empty squat rack at 9pm sounds like paradise honestly" is only true if you don't wait, @the_alice, so that's lucky for OP.

2 years of 6am workouts here before I cracked. Turns out I hate mornings more than I hate leg day. Empty squat rack at 9pm sounds like paradise honestly.
