What Time of the Day Is Best to Work Out? Posted: 05-02-05 12:32pm
I was just wondering if anyone might have
any advice about when the best time of day
is to excersize to get the best results?
I am new to the whole thing and am kind of
clueless. Thank you

Supposedly the best time of day to workout
is in the morning. This is because it
boosts your metabolism into gear when you
first wake up, since its much slower when
you sleep. And by morning I mean up to 1
hour after you wake up. So if you wake
up at 9 you should start to exercise
before 10 for maximum results.
If you're not a morning person, don't let
this discourage you. Working out at any
time has such great benefits that it
doesn't ultimately matter what time of day
you work out.

The one,
thank's so much...The only reason I am
discouraged at the moment is because I am
expected to be lookin good in a bikini in
month and a half and I want to know that I
am doing everything right to make that
happen in the quickest and healthiest way
possible. That's all. Like what I should
be eating and how much I should be eating
and what kinds of excersizes I should be
doing. I have had such great metabolism
up until now that i'm just clueless about
it all in general. If you have anymore
advise it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks again.-t

For basics I would say just eat less, and
get the calories you do eat from good
sources such as whole grains instead of
white, natural sugar (like fruits) over
artificial sugar (candy bars), important
essential fats like salmon and flaxseed
oil instead of saturated fats and trans
fats, etc.
There's this plan by david kirsch called
the ultimate new york body plan which gets
you about 10 lb or 2 dress sizes smaller
in 2 weeks. It sounds crazy but the
workout and diet are as crazy as what it
claims. But it works, and for the most
part its healthy. I know this because I
did it. But you're going to have to
follow it to the t for it to work.
He has another plan that I think is for
over six weeks which seems perfect for
your time schedule. I have never done
that one but I am sure it yeilds about the
same results in just a longer time.

Body for life is a good program for
beginners who are not sure where to start
with nutrition and workout routines. I
wouldn't recommend doing something too
ambitious right away because you'll easily
burn yourself out and that could lead to a
lot of frustration.
