Late morning workouts optimize muscle building by balancing hydration, cortisol, and energy levels
Muscle growth primarily depends on consistent, progressive strength training rather than the specific time of day. Early morning workouts may be hindered by dehydration, high cortisol levels, and lack of fuel, while evening sessions can interfere with sleep and complicate meal timing. Late morning is identified as the optimal workout window, balancing hydration, energy, and hormonal conditions for effective strength training without disrupting daily routines.
