5 REASONS GOING TO THE GYM IN THE MORNING IS THE BEST TIME OF DAY!



BRITISH and NATIONAL WRESTLING CHAMPION, and OWNER of RIGHT PATH FITNESS - KEITH MCNIVEN explains why it’s best to get your workout out of the way in the morning, leaving you with the rest of your day free! KEITH says – “If we start our days right, i.e. by working out in the morning, it sets the whole day off on a high! We are able to be more productive throughout the day from the motivation we have in the morning.”

1. IT’S EASIER TO FOLLOW HIGH-VOLUME TRAINING SYSTEMS Trying to do a tri-set or a giant set is all but impossible in a packed gym. This guy over here wants to work on his glutes. That girl over there wants to steal your dumbbells. Others cast an evil eye your way for hogging so much equipment. They would have a point — if the gym was crowded. But it's not because you were ready to rise and grind before everyone else. It's much easier to complete these types of training programs when the facility is less crowded. That just happens to be in the morning.

2. YOUR HORMONES ARE WORKING TO YOUR ADVANTAGE In the early morning hours, crucial hormones (i.e., testosterone) that help build muscle mass are elevated in the body. By exercising in the morning, you're taking advantage of these naturally circulating hormones as they're peaking, rather than later in the day when they're lower.

3. IT LEAVES TIME FOR OTHER PRIORITIES Nothing is more important than family. Clearly, there's a trade-off between the amount of time you spend in the gym and the amount of time you can spend at home. Which is why slicing off a small segment, like you can in the morning, is usually better than in the evening, when you have to fight rush hour, navigate a crowded gym environment, get home to shower and allot whatever's left for your family. The math simply works better if you get your workout done in the morning.

4. YOU’LL BE LESS LIKELY TO SKIP YOUR WORKOUT It may take a cup of coffee to get your morning going, but once you're up, there are few distractions on your way to the gym. But later in the day, any number of distractions can sabotage your workout: less motivation, fatigue, the gang is going out for some drinks, a sick child, an overdue report for work or school. If you've already completed your workout, you can simply roll with whatever obstacles come up later in the evening without feeling bad that you missed another day. You're far more likely to be consistent with your training if you get it done early in the day rather than waiting for later.

5. YOUR METABOLIC RATE WILL RECEIVE A QUICK BOOST Without a doubt, exercise can boost your metabolic rate. The degree depends on your current fitness level and the kind of activity you choose. All other things being equal, working out in the morning will help to boost your metabolism, allowing you to burn more calories for the rest of the day. This phenomenon is called excess post-exercise oxygen consumption, or EPOC.
