Researching this weekend, LOOK WHAT I FOUND!
Nice little article block on "Taking the Work Out of Working Out" by Smolensky, co-author of "The Body Clock Guide to Better Health"
"Timing your workouts properly can give you much better results with less efforts,"
So if you want to:
* Improve flexibility...... work out midday - From 10am-2pm is the ideal time for yoga, t'ai chi
or other exercises that involve bending, twisting and turning. Experts say joint flexibility is
almost 20% higher midday than it is first thing in the morning!
* Build muscle.... work out late afternoon - Research reveals this timing trick produces
noticeable toning within two weeks for 60% of people! "It's the time of day when heart and
lung function peaks, plus muscle strength is six percent greater, allowing you to do more reps.
* Become aerobically fit... work out at night - Spine stability and back strength peak at
night. And that makes evenings a great time for aerobic workouts, such as walking. In fact
studies suggest opting for evening aerobics can help boost your speed and power by as
much as 20%.
Give this a try, let me know what you find out...... might work!
