Prime Time

When it comes to working out, all hours of the day are not created equal.

Your morning time is best for Yoga: Your ability to perform is lowest in the morning, so it’s better to keep your exercise less intense in the a.m.

In the afternoon, try smashing for some ball: Time for the smackdown! Some moves that require accuracy, like your killer tennis serve or hole-in-one golf swing, are most precise around 2p.m., when it’s easier for you to get energized and your focus is at its sharpest.

Evening is best for strength: Your core body temperature is highest in the early evening, so your muscles warm up more easily and you can work harder.
