Okay, seniors can exercise anytime they want but studies show that exercising in the morning maximizes the effect thus giving you a better result than doing it any other time of the day. Below are some of the reasons why seniors need to exercise in the morning:

• Exercising in the morning improves sleep. This is because early morning exercise sets your circadian rhythm or your internal body clock that tells your body when it’s time to wake up and when it is time to rest thus improving your sleep.
• Helps you to be consistent with your exercises. Because you are doing it in the morning, you don’t have to set aside time for it during the day which is quite hard once you start doing your everyday tasks. It’s more like doing it first thing in the morning so it’s out of the way already.
  Burns more fat efficiently. It sets your metabolism in high gear so it will burn longer than your body would normally do.
• Helps you adopt a proper mindset. Because you are still feeling that “healthy glow” that comes post-exercise, you are more conscious of the things you eat and how you do things all throughout the day.
• It regulates your hormones better. Your metabolism and hormones go hand-in-hand so when you get your metabolism going, you are also encouraging your hormones to release properly.
• It makes you more alert, keeps your blood pressure in tiptop shape and encourages good blood circulation.
• It sharpens your mind. Studies show that it improves mental acuity which lasts up to ten hours after exercise.
• You feel great. All throughout the day. You do know that exercising releases happy hormones therefore if you exercise in the morning, you feel happy the whole day.
• Trains your body when to be active and when to rest.
• Provides your brain the oxygen it needed. In the morning.
• Jumpstarts your day right. Exercise in the morning has better effects than a cold shower or a strong cup of coffee.
• You feel fulfilled since you’re able to accomplish something so early in the morning.
• The hormone cortisol is higher in the morning. Cortisol is the hormone responsible for breaking fat and turning it into body fuel or energy. Which means you are naturally stronger in the mornings than in any other time of the day.
• Your body burns stored fat rather than burning the energy source you introduced during the day since you exercised first thing in the morning and there’s not much going around to fuel your body.
• You feel lighter when exercising. It doesn’t get any lighter than mornings so take advantage of it.
