How To Find Your Peak Time To Workout

Want to get better results with less effort when you exercise?

Here's a cool fitness tip for you to test.

One of the best things I started doing a few years ago was planning my day around my body’s natural rhythms and peak times. 

If you pay attention, you can figure out your peak times for exercise, work, and other activities.

Peak Time check in:  When are you at your best? 

One of the first steps to know your peak time for exercise is figuring out if you’re a lark or a night owl. 

In the research, a LARK is defined as an EARLY RISER or what you might refer to as a morning person. 

A NIGHT OWL is someone who naturally goes to bed at 1 or 2am.

The summer is a great time to figure out which one you are naturally especially if you’re on vacation. 

When you don’t have an alarm clock, when do you naturally wake up or go to bed?

The goal is to exercise, train, or do physical activity when you’re at your peak time.

The best time for LARKS is to exercise is between 7am to midday.

And the best time for NIGHT OWLS to exercise is around 8pm.

Schedule your workouts or training at your peak time to perform better with less effort. 

You’ll naturally have more energy during and after exercise plus it’ll be less depleting to your body overall.

I realize work and other commitments can interfere with your ability to do this all the time.  Just do your best to block it off. 

Be creative and mindful as you plan your workouts to see if you can shift any of your current activities to support your peak times. 

Even if you do this 20% of the time, you’ll feel a huge difference in your energy and performance.

Have fun!
