As the saying goes, life lies in exercise, which is definitely not empty talk. I believe that, especially in the 21st century, keeping healthy and shaping a perfect figure is almost everyone's pursuit, and you are definitely no exception. But one of the most important prerequisites for keeping healthy and shaping a perfect figure is the need to take regular and proper exercise. As we all know, high-quality exercise is often inseparable from good fitness equipment. And in recent years, among much fitness equipment, the elliptical cross trainer has been recognized and favored by more and more fitness instructors and fitness enthusiasts. This is not only because it is the best exercise equipment to protect joints, but more importantly, it is also a practical and effective scientific exercise equipment to reduce fat and build body.
From small gyms at home or office to large commercial gyms, you will find that the elliptical exercise machine almost everywhere. It is the perfect investment for you to exercise effectively at home. And as long as you exercise on it at least 3 times a week, it can keep you healthy and keep you in perfect shape by burning calories in a short time. Although the elliptical exercise machine can really bring amazing exercise results, few people know that the same exercise on it at different times of day will bring different exercise results. Therefore, in order to maximize your elliptical trainer workout, you must know the best times of day to exercise on it. In the following article, I will explain them to you in detail, please continue reading.
After 10am before lunch
I believe that many people including you may think that getting up early and exercising on an empty stomach is the best time of day to exercise on the elliptical exercise machine, on the grounds that the ability to burn fat is stronger. But contrary to this idea, getting up early and exercising on an empty stomach is not necessarily a good idea. Although you may burn more calories, your body will replenish the lost fat during the day to make up for this sudden and unexpected loss. Actually, after 10am before lunch is the best time of day to exercise on the elliptical machine. During this time, your digestion has been completed (provided that you avoid snacks), and your insulin level is at the lowest level, which can make you burn your body fat faster and achieve better exercise effect.
Between 4pm and 6pm
For the same reasons as after 10am before lunch, between 4pm and 6pm is also the best time of day to exercise on the elliptical trainer. If you don't eat snacks during this time, you will be fully digested and you will be at your best. What's more, this is also the time of day when your body is at its hottest, when your muscles are fully prepared for strenuous exercise. Your muscles will make you last longer and improve your exercise performance in a short time. This will make your exercise on the elliptical exercise machine more efficient.
Exercise times to avoid
Although I suggest that after 10am before lunch and between 4pm and 6pm are the best times of day to exercise on the elliptical cross trainer, there is really no particularly clear and universally ideal exercise time at present. However, it is undeniable that some times in the day are not conducive to your exercise on the elliptical exercise machine, so you should avoid these times. First of all, avoid exercising on the elliptical exercise machine when you feel particularly tired, just get up, or when the weather is very cold or very hot. Secondly, avoid exercising on the elliptical exercise machine for a while after you have just finished eating, or it may upset your stomach and cause stomach pain. Finally, avoid exercising on the elliptical exercise machine less than two hours before going to bed. This will disturb your sleep cycle, and even if you are very tired after exercise, it may be difficult to fall asleep.
To sum up, I suggest that after 10am before lunch and between 4pm and 6pm are the best times of day to exercise on the elliptical trainer. My advice is applicable to most people, but if you want to exercise on the elliptical exercise machine at other times of day, you can also make reasonable arrangements according to your own needs. Anyway, my ultimate goal is to hope that you can get good exercise results.
