When is the most effective time to do it: morning, noon or evening? Learn the basics of successful muscle training in one go!

Q：Morning, noon or evening, when is it most effective?

A:

Muscles can exert great strength when body temperature is high. Therefore, compared to the morning, noon or evening when body temperature tends to rise easily can be said to be the most suitable time for muscle training.

However, in the evening, since time for relaxation such as eating, sleeping, and bathing is also important, the most recommended time is the afternoon time (from noon to evening) when you can be active and perform training.

For those who feel that this is impossible due to work during the day, they should be able to spare about 5 minutes a day, right? Bodyweight muscle training does not require any special props, so you can do it as long as you can find a little private space, even during your free time at work. Please don't use the excuse of not having time or place, please give it your best shot!

Another important thing is to keep it on schedule. According to your personal lifestyle, choose a time that is not forced and can form a habit to start continuously!

Q: Is it better to do it on an empty stomach? Or is it better after a meal?

A:

Muscle training should be avoided whether you are hungry (on an empty stomach) or full (on a full stomach).

Normally, when doing muscle training, carbohydrates are the main source of energy. However, when you are hungry, carbohydrates are insufficient for both the brain and the body. If you continue muscle training in this state, you will begin to use the protein in the muscles as an energy source. I am supposed to be training my muscles, but my muscles are decreasing... This is so inefficient.

Also, after a meal, blood flow is concentrated in the internal organs for digestion and absorption. If you do muscle training at this time, blood will flow to the muscles, digestion will become difficult, and there is a possibility of causing indigestion. It is best to take it about 2 hours after a meal.

In other words, avoid doing it right after a meal. If you are on an empty stomach, please take a light intake of sugar, such as a rice ball or a banana, before starting.
