If you’re not a so-called morning person, crawling out of bed and getting a WERKout in before the sun comes up probably sounds less than appealing. Well, it’s time to dust off your alarm clock and prepare for some tough love. While fitting exercise into your schedule is beneficial at any time of the day, morning has some unique benefits.
Research has shown working out before you start your day can offer numerous benefits including jump starting your metabolism, improving sleep and best of all, result in fewer skipped WERKouts. If that’s not enough to inspire you to rise with the rooster, here are a few more benefits.
Increases Energy
Nothing says “wake up” quite like moving in the morning. Hitting the studio will not only increase energy levels post-workout, but it will keep them higher all day long. Who knows? You might not even need that cup of coffee… (We said “might”).
Stay Consistent
If you struggle to keep a consistent fitness routine, sweating in the a.m. will likely solve that problem. Schedule your workouts like you would any appointment and eliminate the possibility of other obligations interfering with your plans.
Make Healthy Choices all Day
Once you’ve dedicated some time to taking care of your health in the morning, you’re likely to continue making positive choices throughout the day. Let your morning WERKout set the tone for your day!
