Pro Tip: If you're a night owl, don't wake up at 5 AM to work out. Just do it in the afternoon. Seriously. It's FINE..

I like my late nights. I like my late mornings. For several months as a kid, I woke up at 5 AM on the dot to get to the gym every day.

Did I lose weight? Yes. Everything else in my life suffered because I wasn't ever able to get to sleep at 9pm on the dot. I felt like I was living life in a haze.

Don't do this to yourself if you're like me. Just go in the afternoon. If that means you have to take 2 showers instead of 1 that day, acceptable losses - or, alternately, swap to taking showers at night before you sleep.

But don't trade your sleep quality to attain some arbitrary societal standard of being Morning Gym Guy. It's just not worth it.
