Do you enjoy working out at the gym when it's peak time or when you're almost by yourself? I...

I know what you mean.I prefer going to the gym early morning when there are only a few people, for several reasons: The machines are cleaner ( sweat, you know lol), although there is always a lady cleaning the machine seats and handles intermittently...also, you don't have to wait for your turn at the machines like when it's packed. I also like being alone in the sauna,I find it awkward sharing it with another. Oh, and no oglers too lol.I stopped going to the gym though when Covid broke out and work out at home now and go running in the morning because there's a nice park near my house with a path that's perfect for running and walking because no cars are allowed to circulate within the grounds.

When I’m with a friend, I don’t care how many people are around us. I’m just focused on them and helping them find their limit. When I’m by myself, I get incredibly self-conscious and I prefer not even going.

It makes very little difference to me unless it's so packed that I can't use the stuff I need. I go into my own world when I lift. The other people aren't there as far as I'm concerned.

Slow times for me. It's nice to get into that routine and flow from machine to machine. When it's busy, you have to constantly skip around to whatever is open.

I like it somewhere in between ... not mobbed, but I like the energy of others around me !!!

I always went before work, I'd get there around 3:30am & stay til 5. It was quiet and I never had to wait on a station since there was maybe 5,6 people at the most.
