82. Exercise Early


What’s the best time of day to exercise? A study conducted by the Southwest Health Institute in Phoenix, Arizona, showed that 75 percent of morning exercisers were likely to still be at it one year later, as opposed to 50 percent of those who exercised at midday and 25 percent of those who exercised in the evening. It seems that as the day progresses, would-be exercisers are more likely to think of excuses to avoid working out.


Warm-ups should include the following two activities listed in Tip 83.
