They found that the body’s circadian rhythm permits sunrise exercise to trigger a change in the muscle cell gene programming.  As a result, the muscles metabolize sugar and fat more efficiently.  As the sun sets, exercise seems to ramp up the bodies energy expenditure for the remainder of the waking hours. The researchers won’t speculate which time of day is best.  As long as you enjoy at least one aerobic exercise session sometime during the day, you can well afford to just do some walking as more moderate exertion at other times. hogo Sato, Astrid Linde Basse, Milena Schönke, Siwei Chen, Muntaha Samad, Ali Altıntaş, Rhianna C.
