The best time to exercise for your schedule

[DenisP]

I don’t know what kind of work you do, so this advice might not apply to you, but I was in a similar situation myself. Ideally, I would always exercise in the morning because it was just my way of getting it over with for the day. I never loved exercising so I wanted to get it done as soon as possible. Then I ended up taking two jobs that left me with an exercise window between 6:00-9:00 PM, because I came home from work at 6:00 PM and had to be in bed by 9:00 PM. Even though I was exhausted by the time I got home, I realized this is something I have to do. I never felt like doing it, but once the engine got started and I went at it, the workout went much smoother and I actually felt more energized at the end.

Half of the time your tiredness is going to be exaggerated by your mind, and once you get started on your exercise, you’ll find that you have more energy than you expected. In any case, you don't have to exercise every day if you can't. Even 3 times a week helps.

Then maybe you can exercise on weekends? I guess the best solution would be OMAD diet everyday then exercise every weekend or on your day off. For us to lose weight, proper diet plus exercise is a must. Focus on you diet on weekdays then exercise during your free time. Just increase the intensity of your exercise.

Since I could only exercise on weekends, the problem now is the social obligations. It’s common to have parties on weekends and it’s not a problem because parties are usually held later in the day. But when we go on a trip that we had to leave home very early then there’s no more time for me to do some exercise. In this season, we have so many scheduled trips during weekends that I will be amiss with my exercise.

Early morning when I wake up. It helps me gain energy and gets my body to start circulation. And I noticed that after I exercise every morning I got through the day with full energy.

The best to exercise for my schedule is 5 am in the morning and after doing cardio exercise I go to gym and doing lifting and done around 9 am. My working schedule is not regular so usually when my work schedule is early morning what I do is I bring working clothes so I can exercise in my work place before my work start. I also tried to exercise in night but no so much because night is my relaxing time.

Walking in the morning rather taking a car, motor, bike or any vehicle can be a exercise too. Simple and you need not to spend more money. If you think you can walk to the place you are going then walk and it will be good for you.

You just have to look for a convenient time.I like morning exercises because it easily lift ones heart rate which in turns will help speed up metabolism to enable one keep burning calories all day. You should be determined to wake up earlier and exercise indoors.Maybe just skipping for 10-20 minutes or you try on the spot jogging or just dancing.If getting out earlier might be risky in your neighborhood then try indoor exercises and you might not need more than 30 minutes and try to be consistent with it.

I think that what matters is when the time would be convenient for you to workout. If it's during morning period or evening, you should pick when it won't pose any problem for you. Personally, I prefer to workout in the morning because it puts me in the right frame of mind for the day's tasks.

I think the best thing you can do is adjust your waking up time by around half an hour so as to create time for morning workouts. Since you have tiresome evenings after work,morning workouts tend to be idle for you. I also prefer them because they help keep me fresh all day.
