Sport is an activity which is very important and needed by the body. The benefits of exercise itself in addition to making the body healthy, sport also has many positive benefits for the body. One of them is to maintain mental health so that it is not easy to stress, avoid depression and so on. Given the enormous benefits of exercise, the World Health Organization also recommends that you exercise regularly.

Everyone will definitely have their own time in sports, both in the morning and in the evening. Some people choose to exercise in the morning, while others choose to exercise in the afternoon or evening. There is no right time to exercise. Basically, morning or evening exercise is the same. Of the two times, the question will surely arise, which one is better in the morning or in the evening? Both times have a number of benefits. However, the benefits of both are not the same.

According to information from MediaIndonesia.com quoted from Science Daily (14/6) there are perceived differences that are influenced by the body's biological clock. In the study, it was found that exercise in the morning makes the body seem to program the cells in the muscles to make them more effective in regulating the body's metabolism, especially in regulating sugar and fat levels. Meanwhile, exercising in the afternoon will increase the burning of energy in a long time.

kids.grid.id wrote, a study published in the journal medicine & science in sport & exercise states that exercise in the morning has several benefits.

1. Not easily tempted by food, this is important for people who want to lose weight.

2. Make the body more active throughout the day for activities.

3. Calories burned in exercise in the morning more than exercise done in the afternoon.

In contrast to morning exercise, which is done when the body still feels weak because it just woke up from sleep. Exercise in the afternoon can be done while the energy is still collected. Here are the benefits of exercising in the afternoon, quoting from cnnindonesia.com.

1. Increase muscle strength, Night or evening is the right time to exercise for those of you who want to build muscle. Do lift barbells in the afternoon so that muscle mass becomes more leverage. Studies have found that peak muscle performance occurs in the afternoon and evening due to fluctuations in hormone levels and core body temperature.

2. More energy

Exercising in the afternoon increases physical ability and strength by up to 20 percent. This figure is higher than in the morning.

3. Reduce stress

Daily activities are often stressful. To counteract this, do exercise in the afternoon or evening after you finish your daily routine. Exercise triggers the release of endorphins or feel-good hormones that make you feel good, reduce stress, and improve your mood.

4. Wake up fresher

Sweating after exercise in the afternoon or evening helps sleep faster and more soundly. You will also wake up feeling refreshed.

Take the differences in the benefits of morning and evening exercise into consideration. Adjust to the ability and the time you have. Don't let there be no time to exercise, because with exercise will bring positive benefits for the body.
