Today I've been thinking about timing. Personally, I don't like to think about time, don't like schedules, feel boxed in and harassed by them. But, I notice that exercise/fitness action done earlier in the day tends to be more comfortable, and tends to actually get done. Whereas, such actions, if not done earlier in the day tend to be displaced by other things until the evening, and then until late in the evening when one should be sleeping.
There are more reasons than that to do physical exercise earlier in the day, it raises the metabolic rate so that one burns calories at a higher rate the rest of the day, it energizes the exerciser so that one is more awake and keen the rest of the day. And, it just plain makes a person feel good.
Early to bed, early to rise, early to exercise,
makes one happier, fitter, and in the right size.
