When is the best time to exercise in winter?

Many people do exercise to have a healthy body, but exercise cannot be done blindly. Exercise must be done at the correct time period to achieve the effect of fitness. However, many friends in life have different exercise times and they all arrange them according to their own schedules. Some people think it is better to exercise at night, while others think it is better during the day. So when is the best time for fitness in winter?

Human activities are controlled by the "biological clock". Arranging exercise time according to the "biological clock" is more beneficial to health. It is ideal to exercise in winter between 14:00 and 19:00 in the afternoon. At this time, the outdoor temperature is relatively high, the human body's temperature is also relatively high, and the physical strength is relatively abundant. It is easy to get excited and easier to enter a state of exercise.

Afternoon: (14:00-16:00): It is a good time to strengthen physical strength, and the muscle endurance is 50% higher than other times.

Dusk: (17:00-19:00): Especially when the sun sets, the human body's motor ability reaches its peak, vision, hearing and other senses are more sensitive, and the heart rate and blood pressure also rise.

After a meal: More blood flows to the gastrointestinal tract to help digest and absorb food. Exercise at this time will hinder food digestion, and over time it will cause gastrointestinal diseases and affect the health of the body. Therefore, it is best to sit or lie down quietly for 30 to 45 minutes after a meal before exercising.

After drinking: Alcohol is absorbed into the blood and enters the brain, heart, liver and other organs. Exercise at this time will increase the burden on these organs. Compared with exercising after a meal, exercising after drinking has greater negative effects on the human body.

The above is an introduction to the question of when is the best time for fitness in winter. In fact, morning is not the best time to exercise, especially for the cold winter. It will be better to exercise in the afternoon. Friends who often do outdoor sports should pay attention to it and match their time reasonably to achieve the best results.
