Having trouble figuring out when to put get your workout in? Well, fitness experts suggest there are benefits to working out in the morning:
Burn More Calories– Exercising early in the morning jump starts your metabolism, keeping it elevated for hours, sometimes for up to 24 hours. As a result, you’ll be burning more calories all day long–just because you exercised in the morning.
Energy– Exercising in the morning energizes you for the day–not to mention that gratifying feeling of virtue you have knowing you’ve done something disciplined and good for you.
Increases Mental Acuity– Studies have shown that exercise significantly increases mental acuity–a benefit that lasts four to ten hours after your workout ends. Exercising in the a.m. means you get to harness that brainpower, instead of wasting it while you’re sleeping.
