I think that it doesn’t matter when u exercise just as long as you do it and if you do it after work just make sure that your doing it for the same period of time that you would have done it in the morning.
Morning exercise will get to energized and stimulated. It will stretch your body and eliminate any aches and pain you might have. Evening exercise might get you too excited , so might have a difficulty fallen a sleep.
Yes any exercise is better than no exercise. It’s nice to work out it the morning to get it out of the way. Instead work out right after work to get it out of the way. No excuses, I’m too busy has to be the lamest excuse there is. Working out is a privilege not a burden. Make it happen. It’s worth it. Health is Wealth.
If you’re consistent, then exercise has an equally big benefit either before or after work. On the other hand, if you exercise too late at night, you might have trouble winding down to sleep. Or something might come up during the day preventing you from getting around to it at all.
If your goal is weight loss or fitness related it should be about the same, but excercise in the morning gives you an opportunity to wake up and be more efficient during your work day. If you’re tired, you can try going to bed earlier or cutting out caffiene.
Hi! In my opinion, it’s better if you can do same thing in morning. I fully understand how you are feeling. I was a very serious long-sleeper. I can enjoy sleeping 12hours or more. But, I can now wake up at 6 o’clock everyday. Use rituals as your everyday’s treat. I never felt those rituals like running as "obligation". I actually regard them as my rewards. I think about next morning in the night, I feel excited to do ritual tomorrow. "I just can’t wait!" This feeling motives you a lot. I think it’s easier to feel this way, if you do exercise in morning.
Yes. It can have the same benefits. People often recommend that you exercise in the morning because it puts it at the beginning of your day before something can go wrong and keep you from doing it. The health benefits don’t go away later in the day. I workout in the afternoon because it’s more doable for me with 4 kids who like to wake up early.
Remember to exercise is better than not exercising. So no matter day or night. Don’t let that be the excuse for not exercising.
Since the whole point is to get you energised, the answer is “no”. You will see training benefits but not the desired morning energy. But ask yourself - can you manage 5 minutes every morning? Because that’s all it takes. Don’t force a full, hour long workout. 5 minutes, or the mythical 7min workout is all it takes; you can do it! (I love sleeping long too and sometimes I have to shorten my workout, but even if it’s only a few exercises, do them!)
I believe that exercising after work would have the same overall effect on your body as it would in the morning, although you wouldn’t feel the same impact on your mindset. Doing such in the morning would let your brain start to get ready for the day.
