Which time is good for exercise

Some people swear by a 6 a.m. jog to get their hearts racing and get them psyched up for the day. Others wouldn't dream of breaking a sweat before noon, preferring a walk around the neighborhood after dinner. But is any one time of day the best time to exercise?

The truth is that there's no reliable evidence to suggest that calories are burned more efficiently at certain times of day. But the time of day can influence how you feel when exercising.

The most important thing, experts say, is to choose a time of day you can stick with, so that exercise becomes a habit.

Your Body Clock
Your body's circadian rhythm determines whether you're a night owl or an early bird, and there's not much you can do to alter it.

Circadian rhythm is governed by the 24-hour pattern of the earth’s rotation. These rhythms influence body functions such as blood pressure, body temperature, hormone levels, and heart rate, all of which play a role in your body's readiness for exercise.

Using your body clock as a guide to when to go for a walk or hit the gym might seem like a good idea. But, of course, there are other important considerations, such as family and work schedules, or a friend's availability to walk with you.

The Perks of Morning Exercise
If you have trouble with consistency, morning may be your best time to exercise, experts say.

"Research suggests in terms of performing a consistent exercise habit, individuals who exercise in the morning tend to do better," says Cedric Bryant, PhD, chief science officer with the American Council on Exercise in San Diego.

"The thinking is that they get their exercise in before other time pressures interfere," Bryant says. "I usually exercise at 6 a.m., because no matter how well-intentioned I am, if I don't exercise in the morning, other things will squeeze it out."

He recommends that if you exercise in the morning, when body temperature is lower, you should allow more time to warm up than you would later in the day.

But now it appears that the time you choose for a strenuous workout is crucial in determining its effectiveness.
Scientists say that those who go to the gym - or for a jog - after work are likely to attain a higher level of fitness than those who exercise first thing in the morning.

They found that the body's metabolism seems to adapt better to a keep-fit routine in the evening or night-time.
In a study at the Clinical Research Centre of the University of Chicago, 40 healthy men aged between 20 and 30 were divided into five groups.
Four teams exercised vigorously for an hour on a step machine in the morning, afternoon, evening or night, while the fifth did not exercise at all.

Blood samples taken from all the volunteers showed that levels of two endocrine hormones - cortisol and thyrotropin - increased far more in those who exercised either in the evening or late at night. Scientists also found that glucose levels decreased far more in the same subjects.
Lead researcher Dr Orfeu Buxton said: 'These are signs that your metabolism is adapting well to regular exercise and suggests it may be better to train after work rather than first thing in the morning.'

The results could explain why athletes were able to perform better at certain times of the day.
Dr Buxton, who will present his study at the annual meeting of the Endocrine Society in Denver, Colorado, tomorrow, went on: 'This is the first study to look at the variation in the effects of exercise at four different times of day.

'We didn't expect to see such large differences. The variations in the hormone levels are quite large.'
John Trower, a technical director at UK Athletics, who trains javelin star Steve Backley, said top athletes normally did the technical work in the morning and the 'hard graft' between 4pm and 6pm.But in his experience, not everyone was suited to exercising in the evening. 'Some are morning people and others might have more energy in the evening. It's a personal choice.'


Researchers in Holland found that punishing workouts combined with a strict diet did no more to control weight than simply cutting down on calories. The key to staying fit was to eat less and take more moderate exercise.


While some people are up at the crack of dawn to lace up their running shoes, others can’t fathom a workout before noon. Finding the perfect time to exercise is as much about personal preference as it is physiology. Exercise is supposed to feel good—but if muscles are tight in the morning or working out too late disrupts sleep, it can feel counterproductive.

Afternoon Advantages

Plenty of people tout the benefits of early morning sweat sessions, but if you can't fit in a workout before noon, don't sweat it. Research suggests the body could adapt to regular gym dates, so if we hit the weight room every day at 4 p.m., eventually we might perform better at that time than at any other time of day. These findings are similar to earlier research, which suggests that sticking to a specific workout time can result in better performance, higher oxygen consumption, and lower perceived exhaustion. But scheduling a workout is more complicated than choosing a number on the clock.

Your body’s core temperature is an important factor in determining the quality of exercise. A cold body leaves muscles stiff, inefficient, and susceptible to sprains, whereas higher body temperatures leave muscles more flexible. Body temperature typically increases throughout the day, so muscle strength and endurance may peak in the late afternoon, when body temperature is highest. The afternoon is also when reaction time is quickest and heart rate and blood pressure are lowest, all of which combine to improve performance and reduce the overall likelihood of injury.

Hormone levels are also important in determining optimal workout time. Testosterone is important for muscle growth and strength, in ladies and gents. And the body produces more testosterone during late afternoon resistance training than it does during morning workouts. Plus, the stress hormone cortisol, which aids in the storage of fat and reduction of muscle tissue, peaks in the morning and decreases throughout the day and during exercise. But early birds, take heart: Morning workouts can be successful too.

Morning Perks

Couple Running It's sometimes easier to keep a morning workout routine consistent. Afternoon and evening workouts are more likely to conflict with other responsibilities as the day progresses. Plus a full day’s work can take a serious toll on willpower—which can overcome any gym-goer’s best intentions.

Morning workouts might also be a good option for stress-free snoozing. Since exercise increases heart rate and body temperature, working out too late in the evening (generally after 8 p.m.) may disrupt sleep, while one study showed that working out at 7 a.m. (compared to 1 p.m. or 7 p.m.) may help people sleep more soundly at night.

Finally, one study found that 45 minutes of moderate morning exercise (like walking briskly on the treadmill) helped curb appetite directly after working out. Research also shows that people can burn up to 20 percent more body fat exercising on an empty stomach—much easier to do first thing in the a.m. than at night.
