Most people exercise at the wrong time of day. Here is what the science says.🥸 🥵Your body produces its highest cortisol levels in the first hour or two after waking. Morning cortisol is your body's natural energizing mechanism. When you exercise in the evening instead, you spike cortisol at exactly the wrong time, making it harder to wind down, fall asleep, and recover overnight. Move in the morning and you work with your biology, not against it. WHY IT MATTERS Research shows that a morning workout significantly reduces the cortisol surge your body produces in response to stress later in the day. It essentially pre-conditions your nervous system to stay calmer under pressure. If you have a demanding job, this is one of the most underrated advantages you can give yourself. WHAT TO DO You don't even need an hour. Even 20 to 30 minutes is enough.🎾 The longevity formula is simple: Zone 2 cardio plus strength training. Zone 2 is a brisk walk or easy bike at a pace where you can hold a conversation but could not sing. It is the most consistently backed protocol for burning fat, improving heart health, and extending healthspan. Strength training protects you as you age by stabilizing blood sugar, boosting metabolism, and building the muscle reserve that keeps you upright and independent for decades.🚶 Do not skip stretching. Dynamic stretches before movement, like leg swings and arm circles, wake up the joints. Static holds after, like a 30-second hamstring stretch, cut soreness and injury risk. Even 10 minutes of yoga lowers cortisol and reduces inflammation. Do it while watching TV if you have to. A SIMPLE MORNING TEMPLATE - 10 minutes of sunlight to set your circadian rhythm - 5 minutes of dynamic stretching - 20 to 30 minutes of Zone 2 cardio - 2 to 3 strength movements on lifting days - 5 minutes of static stretching to finish Exercise before the day gets crazy and you find an excuse to skip. Your cortisol, your sleep, and your long-term health will all thank you.

On average? Trying to poll the group!🛌🛌🛌🛌🛌

It’s always cool to see seasonal reports and analyze over a period of time how you did. I’m proud of my consistent sleep/wake times. Believe it or not these were much more sporadic a few years ago… Then I prioritized bedtime more than anything else. Were friends mad, girlfriend upset, missed family time? No, not at all. If you are are serious and determined about something, your loved ones will understand and adapt. It’s literally life or death…. lol. Normalize strict bedtimes again!!! How has your sleep been?
