Working out the best exercise plan to get the results you want is no easy task.
The good news? There’s a perfect time to exercise, but the not-so-good news is that the right time is different for each of us. Don’t worry though, there is a way to work out which time of day is best for your body and it all starts with this mysterious thing called a ‘chronotype’.
“Chronotype is just a really fancy word for morning person or evening person,” applied sports scientist Professor David Bishop told HuffPost Australia.
As your chronotype refers to the way your body self-regulates time, it is a significant factor when working out which time of day will suit your body best for exercise.
Bishop suggests playing around with daily exercise times as a way of testing which could suit you better.
“Try exercising in the morning for a couple of weeks, try exercising at lunchtime for a couple of weeks and try exercising in the evening sometime. So, I think then you’ll get a little bit of a personal experiment to find out when exercise tends to be working best for you,” Bishop said.
