At the urging of our sons, the wife and I have finally begun a consistent time of working out daily on our elliptical machine. It's been going great, but here's a question.
I hear varying opinions on this, so I thought I would turn to our illustrious forum for counsel. What is the best time of day to do the workout? I know any workout is better than no workout at all, but we want to try and get the most from what we do.
We have been doing it right upon getting up in the morning before breakfast. One of my sons says this is not best since it can decrease muscle by working out without eating first.
In recent days, because of my busy schedule, I have worked out later in the day, sometimes in the afternoon and sometimes at night before bed. I always wait a couple of hours or so after eating so as not to cramp up.
So there you have it! I am open to your thoughts on the matter! Thanks and have a great day!
