What is the best time to exercise?
The best time to exercise is determined by you! While a number of studies have shown that exercising in the morning is best, just as many have shown that the afternoon is preferable. New research shows that the body will adapt and perform better if you exercise at the same time every day.
Studies done with runners showed that those athletes who consistently trained at the same time as their race had better race times than those who trained at different times of day.
So, if exercising early in the morning works best for you, exercise in the morning. If an evening sweat session is easier to schedule, commit to that.
Happy exercising!
