I think static stretching is better for the morning. Less chance of hurting your self and wakes your body and muscles up slowly which is what you want.

Dynamic stretches. It’s always good to have a warm up before going into stretching. A bonus is that getting up and moving around can heighten your alertness early in the morning, without needing the coffee! (But you can still have your coffee) Added benefits of a small bit of movement include increased blood flow, concentration, and memory.
