What's the best time to go to the gym?

[minncruisers]

I'd like to avoid the wait for a treadmill and want to know if there's a best time to go to the gym to avoid this.

For me, some time after I get off the ship. :D

HHHHHEEEEELLLLLLLLLLOOOOO minncruisers: I like to go first thing in the morning when the gym opens at 0600 hours. Very few people are there then.

5:02AM if you leave it as late as 5:05AM you will have a long wait :D just kidding, ok on a cruise i found quite a few people who it seems have never seen a treadmill so walk 1mph incase they fall off. So go early like 6ish. You are prob better off running round the deck instead.

The best time to go to the gym is a port day. Everybody is off the ship, so you can go anytime that you want because NOBODY is there! :) When finished, get cleaned up and go ashore!

I usually go in the middle of the day like between 1-3pm and I never have any problems waiting for a machine.

Every ship I have been on (except Fantasy) has had a line up for treadmills between 6 and 6:30 a.m. - sometimes to the point where I grab an elliptical instead. Dh goes to the gym around 7:30-8 a.m., and has no problem getting a machine of any kind. If he skips his morning workout, he goes to the gym between 2 and 3 pm, and walks right on the treadmill.

Any time there are free drinks being served is a good time to be in the gym. Also, during port visits.

We will be using the gym on the Valor but if I'm up at 6:00 it will be to get ready for port...so we will try it out in the evening after dinner or around 3 or so on sea days. I will report how we do with those times when we get back.

Last cruise, my husband and I went after dinner, around 8 or 8:30pm and there was hardly anyone in there. If there were, it was employees getting their workouts in. Never had a problem getting on any machine.

Mid-day seemed to work for me along with port days. We got off the Glory, did a little shopping, made some calls home, and then hit the gym, saunas and whirlpool which were all empty. About two hours later, I guess everyone had the same idea and it became very crowded. we then hit the deck to lay out in the sun for a bit. We had our choice of any deck chair we wanted.

[pooh/tigger]

What are the hours? On another website, someone said the gym opens once you leave port and doesn't close until you get back.

[cruiserbryce]

on the ships that I have actually used the gym...late night has always been the best...or while in port
