What is the best time to exercise?

As the cold winter is approaching, many middle-aged and elderly people hope to enhance their immunity through reasonable exercise to avoid the recurrence of their chronic diseases in winter. In fact, not all the time in a day is for scientific exercise outdoors. For the health of the majority of middle-aged and elderly people, please choose the right time to do outdoor exercise. So what is the best time to exercise?

Simply put, it's a choice: if exercising in the morning is 100% effective, but you can't do it, its effect is zero. If exercising at night is only 70% as good as it gets, but you do it, it will definitely be good for you. If you can't exercise in the morning, do you still want to give up exercising in the evening?

If you don't have time during the day and indulge your laziness by saying you can't exercise at night, then just continue to be lazy and get fat.

From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, daytime is the time when the yang energy in our body rises, just like a spark that is growing. At this time, if we can give our body some exercise, it is helping the "spark" in our body to continue to grow, so exercising during the day is warming our yang energy.

However, night is the time when our body's yang energy rests. If we exercise and use our yang energy at this time, we will harm our body's yang energy.

Therefore, it is more appropriate to choose daytime to dance square dance. Of course, it is best not to go out dancing too early. You can get up early and sit quietly at home, and then go to dance after dawn. This can avoid the invasion of cold air too early and will not affect the sleep of those who get up late.

What we have mentioned above are some key issues that middle-aged and elderly people need to pay attention to in controlling their outdoor exercise time. We hope that after seeing this, the majority of children can promptly correct some of our parents’ wrong arrangements in terms of exercise time, and at the same time urge them to choose appropriate exercise time and amount according to their own physique and physical condition, which will be beneficial to their happiness in their later years.
