There’s just something about that peaceful, focused energy in the early hours that makes the workout hit different.

I enjoyed early-ish 6am workouts when I had the chance. Caffeine much past like 9am sucks for sleep in my old age, so getting that early morning jolt with a workout was nice, and then I found it seriously boosted my energy and focus. I'd also take early walk/jogs before work and loved those.
I currently roll out of bed at 4:55am for work though, so <4am isn't ever going to happen... granted, being at the gym at 2 in the afternoon is nice, too.
