Why exercise in the middle of the day?

✳️ Research suggests that we should be doing at least “40 minutes of moderate to vigorous intensity exercise to balance out 10 hours of sitting still” but many of us don’t have time, with busy schedules before and after work!

✳️ Help combat the “midday slump” 😴 Our normal circadian cycle can bring on sleepiness or decreased alertness in the afternoon.. which doesn’t help productivity especially if you’re meant to be working until the late afternoon! Exercise (among other things) can most definitely raise those energy levels to get you through the rest of your day 💪🏽

✳️ There are actually studies showing that exercising at midday can be more beneficial than in the morning/evening - I’ll link one here 😉 https://www.webmd.com/fitness-exercise/news/20230222/midday-exercise-more-beneficial-than-morning-workouts-study
