if you're going to work out, I would really suggest going first thing in the morning. It has such a dramatically different effect on your day versus working out at night. I'm not a morning person either but I'll never work out at night again.
- guynamedloren 14y agoI usually work out at night but have always heard that working out in the morning is better.. thinking about making the switch. I'm not a morning person either. What are the benefits? More energy/zest during the day?
- sharkweek 14y agoNot a morning person myself, but switched to working out in the AM (especially beneficial here in Seattle where it's dark on both sides of the workday for 6 months of the year). The rush from working out will carry you powerfully into the rest of your day and for the most part get you off on a stronger start. From a health perspective too, it's a lot easier to "refuel" your body throughout the day after a morning workout as opposed to at night.
- andrewdumont 14y agoI swear by morning workouts. It's just so much more efficient than evenings. When you're tightly scheduled in the morning you're forced to workout efficiently. A good workout isn't necessarily a long one -- high intensity is what matters. Like Sharkweek said (awesome), the energy it gives you to start your day is amazing. It carries me to lunch with plenty of adrenaline flowing. I also had difficulty falling asleep when I worked out in the evenings.
