Is it good to run in the afternoon?

Generally speaking, many people now choose to run in the morning, but from a health point of view, running in the morning is not the best and optimal time, because in the morning the various functions of the human body have not fully awakened, especially for some friends with weak cardiovascular system, it is easy to cause other injuries, so if you want to run, it is recommended to run in the afternoon.

In recent years, scientists have been exploring the relationship between the biological clock and exercise in order to find a time of day that can burn the most fat. The results showed that changes in body temperature will have the greatest impact on the quality and effectiveness of exercise. That is, when you exercise, the higher your body temperature, the better your workout will be.

Usually, body temperature is lowest in 1 to 3 hours before getting up, and rises to the highest in the afternoon. Therefore, it is safe to say that the best time to exercise is in the afternoon. During this time, your muscles are warm, your physical strength is abundant, your heart rate is stable, and your blood pressure is low. If time does not permit, you can choose morning exercises. The best time for morning exercises is when the sun just rises. When night falls, the rising hot air quickly disappears, and the cold air descends, settling impurities in the atmosphere near the ground. At dawn, the concentration of impurities in the air near the ground is the highest. Without sunlight at night, plants cannot carry out photosynthesis to absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen.

On the contrary, it absorbs oxygen and releases carbon dioxide. Therefore, at dawn, the concentration of carbon dioxide in the air near the ground is the highest. When the sun rises, the ground is heated, and the hot air on the surface rises, carrying impurities away from the ground. At the same time, plants absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen through photosynthesis. It is roughly estimated that it will take half an hour for the surface air to be initially purified. 1-2 hours is more appropriate. Because during this time human activities have not yet polluted the ground air. It can be seen from this that it is not advisable to open the windows too early in the morning to change the air.

Mastering the correct running time can make your running achieve the most ideal exercise effect. We also hope that everyone has a more comprehensive understanding of these sports common sense issues, so that they can run healthily and correctly, thereby effectively avoiding other adverse harm to health caused by wrong exercise time.
