Which is better for weight loss: morning jogging or night jogging?

Both morning and evening runs are generally effective for weight loss, and it is recommended to choose appropriately.

Morning runs can help kick-start your metabolism for the day, continuously burning calories. If you run before breakfast, your body may rely more on fat as an energy source, which can aid in fat burning. Running in the morning can help establish regular lifestyle habits and improve your mental state throughout the day. Regular morning runs can enhance cardiopulmonary function and increase oxygen uptake, thereby consuming more calories during daily activities, which helps control body weight.

Evening runs can help burn excess calories and promote fat burning if you have consumed a large dinner. Evening runs can relieve stress and fatigue accumulated during the day, improving mood and thus reducing不良 behaviors such as binge eating caused by stress. Light jogging after dinner can promote gastrointestinal motility, aid digestion, and prevent weight gain caused by food accumulation.

Before morning runs, it is important to eat an appropriate amount of food to avoid discomfort such as hypoglycemia; for evening runs, care should be taken to avoid excessive exercise that may affect sleep. Additionally, whether choosing morning or evening runs, ensure the running environment is safe and comfortable.
