In any successful exercise or weight loss program, one of the best things that you can do is to exercise first thing in the morning. It may take a little extra discipline, especially if, like me, you are not particularly a “morning person”, but the reasons for doing so are multiple, and the benefits are fantastic for your weight loss program. So, why mornings?
1. The vast majority of people who exercise on a consistent basis (i.e. every day), do so in the mornings – as much as 90%. By deciding to exercise in the morning you are statistically much more likely to stick with it!
2. Exercising first thing in the morning is like jump leads to your metabolism. Your metabolism rises, and stays raised, in some cases for up to 24 hours. The upshot of this is that you are burning calories throughout the day, and all because you took that exercise first thing.
3. Energize yourself for the day! Try it – you will find that your energy levels are considerably raised throughout the day, all because you metabolism is higher and you are processing calories so much quicker.
4. Exercising in the morning actually regulates your appetite for the day – you feel less hungry, and it has been proven to actually curb your cravings for the “wrong” kinds of foods. It helps to put you in the correct mindset for the rest of your healthy lifestyle.
5. By exercising at the same time every morning, and therefore waking up at the same time every morning, your body’s internal rhythms adjust accordingly. By getting into this routine, your body will “know” just before you are going to wake up (how many times have you awoken just a couple of minutes before the alarm goes off?) and start to prepare itself for waking and exercise.
You will find that it is much easier, therefore to wake up in the mornings. This is mainly because the hormones involved in activity and exercise actually begin to elevate while you’re sleeping. By getting up and exercising at the same time every morning, the levels of these hormones will naturally start to peak at the same time every day.
6. You will find that the more you do it, you will actually look forward to it. You have set something aside for yourself – time to feel good about yourself. Because this good feeling comes first thing in the morning, the feel-good feeling can last for a long time throughout the day.
7. Exercise increase your mental acuity – remember that the brain is a muscle too. Studies have shown that exercise can actually increase brain power for up to 10 hours after exercise – what a waste if you are asleep!
8. By incorporating exercise into your early morning routine, you are less likely to abandon it when something else comes up. In today’s fast-paced busy schedules, how many times have you had to cancel your visit to the gym because something else has come up? Now ask yourself how many times similar things have cropped up first thing in the morning?
9. If your schedule really is very full, you can squeeze exercise in first thing in the morning simply by getting up 30-60 minutes earlier than you currently do. This way it’s not so much of a drag on your day. Also you’ll find that by exercising regularly you’ll need less sleep anyway!
10. It makes you feel great. Exercise can boost your general good feeling and massively increase your chances of succeeding at any weight-loss program – try it, what have you got to lose?
