Say no to morning jogging! 4 p.m. is the best time to exercise

Many people are used to jogging early in the morning, believing that it is good for health. However, according to a British study, morning is not the best time to exercise, and you should say "NO!" to morning jogging. Instead of getting up early every morning for a jog, it is better to get enough sleep and get enough rest before jogging.

According to British research, morning is not the best time to exercise as people's physical fitness has not reached its peak at this time.

According to the British Daily Mail, a study from the University of Birmingham found that morning is not the best time to exercise, as people's physical fitness does not reach its peak at this time. Instead of getting up at 6 a.m. every day and forcing yourself to go out for a jog when you are groggy, it is better to sleep a little longer and exercise when your body is in the best condition.

Study: The best time for ordinary people to exercise is around 4 p.m.

The researchers conducted six physical fitness tests on 20 professional athletes, between 7 a.m. and 10 p.m. All subjects first had to fill out a detailed questionnaire to determine which of them were early risers, which were night owls, and which were somewhere in between. The results showed that early risers performed best when tested at noon, night owls reached their peak physical fitness before 10 p.m., and those in between performed best around 4 p.m.

It may seem that those who exercise early are fully awake, but their physical fitness still has not reached its peak. For night owls, exercise timing is even more important. If they are forced to exercise in the morning, their performance will be 26% worse than usual. The research results have been published in the journal Cell.

Instead of getting up at 6 a.m. every day and forcing yourself to go out for a jog when you feel groggy, it is better to sleep a little longer and exercise after you get enough rest.

Athletes who like to go to bed and get up early have a good chance of getting good results if they start early

Researcher Roland Brandstaetter pointed out that almost every cell in the human body has its own clock. The brain, organs, heart, liver and all other tissues of the body constitute the so-called biological clock and control human physiology.

This research result is not only meaningful to ordinary people, but also to professional athletes, because in professional competitions, even a 1% difference in physical fitness may have a decisive impact on winning the championship. For example, the European Champions League usually starts at 8 pm. Players who like to sleep late are suitable to come on as substitutes after 9 pm, and their results can be better. Players who are used to sleeping early and getting up early should start, so they can have the hope of performing well.
