Finding time to exercise can be challenging and the most important thing is to squeeze in any amount of it whenever you can.But if you want your workouts to get widest range of benefits,you might want to try exercising in the morning.
Here is what science says out the best time of the day to workout.
Morning workout has an edge.
Working out in morning,especially on an empty stomach is the best way to burn fat,making it ideal for weight loss.That’s largely because body’s hormonal compostion is setup to achieve that goal,says Anthony Hackney, a professor in the department of exercise and sport science at the University of north Carolina chapel Hill.
“In the early morning hours,you have a hormonal profile that would predispose you to better metabolism of fats”,says Hackney.People naturally have elevated level of cotisol and growth hormone in the morning ,both of which are involved in the metabolism” so you’ll draw more energy from your fat reserves.”
A morning sweat may also lead to better health and productivity throughout the day,since exercise is great for reducing stress.
But if you are really not a morning person ,don’t force it.Morning workouts are ideal for losing weight and burning fat,but afternoon workouts give you boost.
“If you will do it in the morning, do it.If you do it in the evening, do it.” says Hackney.”If your physiology is not going to matchup with your behaviour, then it is the moot point. “
