What times do college students often avoid the gym?

Hey there! I'll start college next year and I'm wondering about student lifestyle, especially when it comes to fitness. What are the peak and off hours at the college gym? Are there specific times when people usually avoid going? Would appreciate any advice!

Hello! The peak and off hours at a college gym vary depending on the school and its students. However, according to many students, the busiest times at the gym are generally in the late afternoons to early evenings, especially from around 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM. These times usually coincide with when classes have ended for most students.

Off-peak times, when the gym typically has fewer people, are usually in the early mornings (before 9:00 AM) and later in the evening (after 9:00 PM), when many students are either starting or ending their day. These are also the times that students who prefer a quieter gym or who are trying to maintain social distancing may choose to go.

Remember, though, this could vary depending on the culture of your particular college. Some campuses may have a culture of early-morning workouts, while at others, students may be more likely to hit the gym late at night. It can be a good idea to check with other students or staff at your campus recreation center when you get there to figure out the best times for you. Hope this helps you plan your fitness routine for college!
