Work­out, Morn­ing or Evening?

Morning run exerciseWhat time of day do you work­out?

For me, I’ve found I get bet­ter results when I work­out in morn­ing. I feel that I get a bet­ter, longer work­out in the morn­ing. The burst of energy I get from the work­out also seems to last through­out the day.

Granted, for some it takes more dis­ci­pline to get up ear­lier to get a work­out in before head­ing off to work. But, the stress of a 8 – 10 hour work day can take out any energy and ini­tia­tive to exer­cise later in the day. I know after a tough, drain­ing day at work, exer­cise is the last thing on my mind. That may be dif­fer­ent for oth­ers that take out their stress by work­ing out. But I’ve never found that to be good motivation.

One other thing I’ve found is that I get bet­ter sleep at night and feel more rested when I wake up when I work­out in the morn­ing.

Here is an arti­cle that lists the ben­e­fits of work­ing out in the morning.

Do you feel you get bet­ter results exer­cis­ing at one time of day over another?

    I’d have to agree, I wouldn’t work out every­day if I didn’t get up at 5:15 to do my work­out. I also have cut out caf­feine almost com­pletely doing that since I’m wide awake by the time I’m in the office.
