Does time of day for workouts and pinning really matter?

[jdidtht]

I tend to pin in the morning and grab a work out in the morning or early afternoon, and I'm not an expert, but I've always been under the assumption that an morning workout or early afternoon workout is most beneficial, but when I think about it, recovery times, are the same, but, nutrition​ isn't. I mean, work out in the morning, and then through the course of the day your feeding the muscles as much as possible, whereas you work out in the afternoon and you don't have as much time to eat, and then it's bedtime. So my question I guess is a two stage question, is there a "best" time factually to work out for maximum benefit and gains, and does this information also carry over to the times a guy pins his gear, let's say test e for this conversation. I'm just curious is there is a solid science behind this, or does hard work translate regardless of time of day, (other than middle of the night which I'd never do anyways.) I'm not new to working out, but new to trying to maximize fully my work nutrition etc. Also, I'm a slimmer framed guy, 6ft 180, athletic build, not shredded but athletic.. hardest part for me is just keeping enough calories in me, I should definitely start some supplements to start to maximize my work, but with so many options ,it can be Confusing for guys who have to been hard in the game for years like alot of you. So, I'm just looking for what you all have to say in regards to my above thoughts. Thanks in advance.

Only for no ester based compounds and orals .

So ester based gear in general, time of day is irrelevant, and with slow esters that build over time there's zero benefit to before a work out or after or right away in the morning vs after dinner or before bed it's the same since it's a slow build of test over the half life of gear. How about just a guys work out in general, over the years what have you found to work for your body type, are you a morning or evening or doesn't matter just when you have time, and do your buddy's follow the similar idea you do.. just trying to gauge a consensus of what the majority of guys who are more serious about the maximum benefits, gains, recovery, have learned over the years with there bodys.

I tend to feel better during the day, more energy, day flies by, just feel more on my shit when I can get a couple hours in before the day starts, but the older I get the harder it becomes to make that time in the morning, the work day/kids starts to encroach on everything which makes a early afternoon workout far easier, but, mentally it doesn't feel the same, physical benefits seem to be the same but mentally it doesn't. So, if mentally it doesn't, then perhaps it isn't maximizing every component. IDK, just looking for information in regards to other peoples experience I guess

Time of day can make a difference based on different factors meal timing . boosted metabolism and energy levels during the day . but most important is too do it period
It would much more optimal for me too train in the morning but work and my scedual just won't allow it . but yes it would benefit me. However .any compound that takes more than 24 hours too break down and 3 or 4 days too peak blood levels as long as you pin every day your supposed too doesn't matter when its will reach a certain potency and injecting pre workout won't make a lick of difference.

Some people better at night depends on type of diet and nutrition strategy also type of work they do . a sit down desk job may do better with a carb backloading approach training at night . ( this is speaking hypothetical please do not quote this as my only approach here) whereas a strenuous labor job may want too train first so he can perform optimally then eat higher carbs throughout the day because of increase physical activity everyone is different

I think you're over thinking it.

Lol I know it seems like it, but i dont think i am, I'm not fully basing anything I do just based upon your guys comments here, but I'm just looking to gain knowledge in general from what seasoned guys have learned over the years, and maybe take some info I learn here and implement bits an pieces to see if my body reacts.. I like the science behind it, and I like to know why things work the way they do, or don't work well for whatever reason, just trying to soak up some knowledge man.. good place to learn from you know?

Most important is too get it done like I said what I consider optimal for me I don't do because it just not feasible . so I do what I can and still make progress.

Unless you're pinning a no ester steroid, injection time won't matter in relation to you workout. As far as workout times, you have to work around your schedule. So most people work during the day and workout in the evening. It's wherever you can fit a workout into your schedule. Unless your unemployed and have the luxury of working out whenever you want, then yes, you are over thinking it.

I workout around 5pm, and always need a good 5-6 meals in me for a great workout, I'm a slim guy so I'm pushing carbs, carbs and more carbs. Gear is always pinned before my workout and make sure all my orals are in before the gym. The only workout I do on one meal is legs and there done on sundays only.

Awesome, interesting, so, I fall into the labor category, not super intensive or anything, but construction in general, framing, painting, taping, etc etc, and for me my diet of carbs is completely average, but I'm interested in trying to cycle carbs for a month or two and see how that goes.. How do feel about carb cycling? Is it a waste? Or is that high load of carbs outweigh the Insulin spike

Carb cycling works the approach is gonna be goal dependant and your own metabolism and insulin sensitivity are going too be huge factors on how you should do it.

Right on man. Thanks for the time man, I was just curious, seen a few guys around here who seems pretty fucking knowledgeable in the science behind nutrition, so I appreciate the replys for sure..

I understand. I'm not looking to just completely fuck myself by overloading with information by any means. Im sure my post just screams that, lol but like I stated earlier, I'm more curious to the science behind it or certain information guys have learned over the years that works for them or things they've learned over the years that maybe slows gains down, or whatever may be brought up you know? Im married two kids own a small business, so I don't have alot of time, just like all of you guys I'm sure but I do have a good habit and enough time to workout several times a week. So, the thing I'm weakest in, is diet.. not looking to eat like a fucking pro or anything for sure, but just learn as much from dudes as I can basically on what has or hasn't worked over the years. So I'm one of those guys with a trillion questions, and from time to time I hope you all can indulge me you know? Lol Thanks I appreciate it

I train in the morning to capitalize on igf-1 release (theoretical) and the build up of hgh. I keep my blood levels consistently loaded so I can maximize anabolism and protein synthesis at all times so I simply try to pin at regular times each pin. I do use MT and or bases as a pwo.

I workout when I can get in the gym, some days I am there early morning other days early evening. I always pin right before I go to the gym and I take my orals right before I go too.


Thanks
