Healthy Routine


Weight Watching - Healthy Routine
Studies show that 90% of people who exercise consistently, exercise in the morning. As well as helping maintain the regularity of your exercise program, a morning routine has the following additional benefits:

1. It "jump starts" your metabolism and keeps it elevated for hours.

2. You'll be energized for the day.

3. Morning exercise "regulates" your appetite for the day.

4. Waking and exercising at the same time prompts your body's endocrine system and circadian rhythms, physiologically your body prepares for waking ahead of time.

5. It's easier to wake-up.

6. Your metabolism and hormones begin to elevate prior to waking, preparing your body for exercise by regulating blood pressure, heart rate and blood flow.

7. Exercise increases mental alertnessy.

8. A morning schedule helps ensure you continue to exercise even when busy.

Many people find it difficult to consistently wake-up early to exercise, often because they have not slept enough and don't wake at the time each day. If you keep to a routine, morning exercise will become easier and something to look forward to.
