Same, i never train in the morning.

I like to have 3 meals before i train. Less than that and it just seems like i'm not ready.

It's probably more a mental thing than actually a physical thing.
No doubt about it...

I'm the opposite. I find I train a lot better on a small whey shake when I wake up. I feel sluggish in the gym if I have a few meals before.

Ive never trained in the morning. Im the exact same way, i have to have 3-4 meals before training. Ive noticed i have alot more energy and strength by eating 3-4 meals before training.

depends on how much energy i have. If i wake up and feel great ill just have some coffee to warm up and train shortly after 20-30 minutes, other times i wait until a couple hours after my first meal

Around 6:30-8 PM weekdays, 2-4 PM weekends if I can swing it.  cardio first thing in the morning whenever I can...

I've tried it all, early mornings, late night, middle of the day...doesn't really seem to make a difference to me, although I need a meal beforehand if I am going to hit the weights early in the morning.

Early morning around 6 a.m. 45 minutes after my egg whites in the morning. Strength is not as good as afternoon or evening full of calories but results are much better for me in morning and thats what matters.
