Adjust clocks let fitness more efficient

Each person has a unique physiology rhythm, that is why your friends can climb up at dawn to finish on time 50 miles, and you in bike training at 3 o 'clock to are not willing to think before running things.

Appear this kind of circumstance, partly because of human body biological clock phenomenon. The clock control from hormone fluctuations to all the physiological phenomena sleep patterns. The Lord in the hypothalamus area, its clock with many smaller clocks keep in touch. These small peripheral biochronometer in other areas, such as liver, heart and skeletal muscles, controls circadian rhythms.

Circadian rhythms and exercise relationship

Circadian rhythm has great influence on exercise. For example, the lowest in a day when temperature is wake up in the morning, so the most suitable for the morning run or aerobic exercise such middle intensity endurance training. Low temperature can overcome the physiological responses caused by training. For example, undergo the same strength training, morning than the heart rate afternoon slowly, so morning can withstand the greater the training intensity. Studies show that many projects are so, this may be because of high temperature of these projects training disadvantage.

Instead, strength training and great strength training for the bicycle in the afternoon, when the human body temperature and muscle strength have reached the peak. Higher temperature can make muscle in big strength training, such as strength training work better, perhaps this can make muscle flexibility better and reaction faster. Many people feel will yoga need lots of stretching on day later time in effect is good, this may be because joints in then relatively relaxation sake. It was not immediately clear whether comparative stiff joints in the morning because just after eight hours of sleep, or because stiff joints rhythm in the morning reached the peak.

Adjust your biological clock

Although circadian rhythms are born, but you still can adjust their circadian rhythm, and adjustment is one of the most effective measures through sports exercise. Strength training can affect those full-time adjust clock genes. Muscles Only through a training action, we can strengthen muscles in the morning that usually closed and weakened the roles of genes that normally open in the morning the roles of genes. That is to say, by adjusting the biological clock, strength training can make your body that is now morning next noon, and vice versa.

The findings could explain why exercise can effectively overcome jet lag. Those who suffered from jet lag and the agenda of the suffering of the people can change the way: in trying to below you reach your destination, and began to feel tired, immediately once for 80% of the intensity of strength training. This continuous do days, your flight time will obviously eased.
