Many doctors and people like you and me debate on what is the best time to exercise.
I believe the best time to exercise all depends on you, the person that will actually do the exercising. I mean, what if a doctor told you, " the best time to exercise is in the early afternoon because you are more alert and less likely to injure yourself".
While that might be true,( click here for the study) what if you are a morning person and you like the way exercise gives you energy throughout the day? Or, if you are trying to lose weight, you might exercise as soon as you wake up to get it out of the way, so you don't have to think about it for the rest of the day.

Remember, if you are using weight loss hypnosis, the desire to exercise comes naturally. There is no effort in making yourself exercise. There is nothing to "get out of the way".
I think there is a balance between the facts about the human body and what you feel is right for you.
So,What is the best time to exercise?
These are the pros and cons of each exercise routine.
In The Morning
Pros...
With exception of kids, there are less distractions and schedule issues in the morning. If you have kids, there is another advantage to the morning exercise routine...
You can wake up earlier and actually create time you wouldn't otherwise have. This is great when you have kids because you are already awake when they wake up, which creates less stress in the morning.
Air pollution is also at it's lowest in the morning, which will help, especially during summer,Your already thinking it...
Temperature. The weather is cooler in the morning, which is good for summer but not so good for winter.
It's easier to form a habit of exercising by doing it in the morning.
A lot of people feel they have more energy in the morning, as well as better mental focus.
Con's....
Your body temperature is lower in the morning, making it harder to get "warmed up".
Because your body temperature is lower, your muscles aren't awake yet. This means you are more likely to get hurt if you don't do some good stretching beforehand.
Around Noon And Into The Afternoon
Pro's...
Body temperatures rise to their peak by late afternoon, so once again you are less likely to get hurt.
Stress relief towards the end of the day.
Exercising at this time of the day can curb your appetite, which helps with the diet.
Again, remember, if you are using weight loss hypnosis,you don't have to try and control your appetite. You want to naturallyeat better foods, so you don't have to worry about your appetite.
Con's...
If you work, there probably isn't much time to even eat, let alone exercising.
Lung functions are at their worst around noon, which makes it harder to make yourself get up and exercise. And, yes, you guessed it, making yourself is not an issue if you are using weight loss hypnosis.
The Evening
Pro's ..
The same thing about body temperature being at it's peak is true here too.
Several people say that this is the easiest time of day to workout because your muscles are looser and so it is easier to form a habit here also.
Easier to curb appetite here also.
Once again, the last two here are not issues if you are using weight loss hypnosis.(That's the last time, promise.)
Con's...
Still some potential schedule conflicts
Sleep problems may develop. If they do, it's probably best to move your exercise routine to earlier in the day.
Please remember, I'm not a doctor here. This is just what I have seen anda lot of what my clients say about the best time to exercise.
Like I said earlier, I think this boils down to what is right for you.
That is what matters here.
The best time to exercise is whatever time of day you feel the most comfortable with. Click here for
