Morning exercise helps your body wake up, because after it the blood begins to circulate more intensively, oxygenates all the cells of the body, which, in turn, gives energy, vivacity and good mood for the whole day!
During sleep, we recover, the “operative” memory of the brain is reset. “Work is underway” to improve immunity and metabolism. After a sound sleep, the body’s systems are in stagnation. After some time after waking up, everything returns to standard mode. Charging just helps to speed up the activation of the body, but this is only the tip of the iceberg.
Why do morning exercises?
- Improvement of the emotional state.
Increases blood circulation in the body during exercise. As a result of charging, endorphins (hormones of “joy”) are produced in the body. There is energy and enthusiasm. In addition, morning exercises help to get rid of chronic stress, which is extremely necessary for a modern working person.
- Improvement in physical fitness.
Morning exercises are not a gym with heavy shells; an explosive load on different muscle groups is not implied. It’s all about regularity. With constant exercise, physical fitness will really improve.
- Reducing excess weight.
Exercising in the morning on an empty stomach speeds up the body’s metabolism. At any time of the day, the burning of subcutaneous fat will occur more efficiently compared to people who do not exercise. Fat oxidation (burning) is accelerated for a whole day after charging on an empty stomach.
- Sleep improvement.
As we have already said, morning exercises affect the proper metabolism, which helps to even out sleep and wake cycles. Thus, at night you will sleep deeply, and during the day – peak activity.
