Exercise Early to Lose Weight

Exercise Early to Lose Weight
Everybody knows that in order to lose weight they must
start exercising. Although you can lose a certain amount of
weight through changing your diet, exercising will increase
your results greatly. Apart from losing weight, exercise
will give you countless other benefits including, all round
health, increase self esteem and confidence, make you feel
happier because you look better, increase your willpower
and give you a great achievement factor when you start
seeing results.

The best time to do any cardio exercise is first thing in
the morning before you eat anything. What happens is that
because you haven't eaten anything during the night, as you
have been asleep, your body has to use calories which are
stored in your body and burning calories is what you need
if you want to lose weight.

Another benefit of exercising in the morning is that it not
only wakes you up mentally but it wakes up your entire
body. Your blood is a delivery system; it carries nutrients
and oxygen to your muscles and organs. When your heart is
pumping blood at a normal rate, the delivery of oxygen and
nutrients takes time. When you force your heart to work
faster and harder through cardio, your blood will deliver
more oxygen and nutrients at a much faster rate, simply
because it's moving a lot faster. All this will give you
greater energy for the day and make you feel more alive
instead of sluggish and tired.

Your metabolism will also speed up if you exercise first
thing in the morning. Exercise burns calories, and your
metabolism has to burn them. Shortly after exercise you
will feel hungry and if you feed this hunger with a good
healthy breakfast, your metabolism will put all the
calories to good use and it will be boosted to burn more
calories throughout the day as long as you don't skip meals.

Another great advantage of exercising early is that it is
done. You do not want to spend the whole day dreading and
thinking about how you have to exercise when you get home
from work. The more you think about that the less you will
want to do it. You will make up excuses like "I can't be
bothered, I'm too tired, or I've got other things to do".
You will virtually talk yourself into not doing it and on
top of this a part of you will feel guilty about avoiding
it.

Exercising first thing in the morning gets rid of these
feelings. You have finished before the day starts. You will
be happier because you will know that the rest of the day
is free because you will have already done what you needed
to. There will be no guilt and no dreading exercise because
it will already be finished.

There are no distractions when you exercise in the morning.
There is nothing to watch on television. You don't have to
go out anywhere because everything is closed. There are no
people to converse with because they are asleep, and you
can't say that you have had a long day. This is your time,
your time to make a great difference to your health. While
everyone else is in bed you are getting a head start and
bettering yourself. It may be a little hard at first but
after a few weeks it will become a habit. Go to bed an hour
earlier and wake up an hour earlier. You're talking about
30 minutes of cardio, and those 30 minutes will come be the
most valuable investment that you may ever make.

Always make sure that you spend 5 or 10 minutes warming up
slowly as this gives your body a gentle nudge to wake
itself up. I promise you that after a short time of doing
this you will begin to feel great everyday. Look at
professional boxers, right from the early days of boxing up
until the present day, boxers have woken up in the early
hours to run. Boxers are some of the most physically fit
specimens of human beings that you can come across. If they
always do cardio in the mornings, surely that is enough to
tell you that it is good if you can exercise early to lose
weight.
