A recent study suggests that mid-afternoon workout session may lower chances of premature death.
The study was published in Nature Communications. The team examined 92,000 people from a UK biomedical database who were provided with accelerometers which measured how and when they worked out for seven days.
After several years, researchers found out that among 3,000 participants who had died; 1,000 had suffered from heart diseases and 1,800 from cancer. Later, it was concluded that people who workout in the mid-afternoon had a lower risk of premature death as compared to those who workout in the morning and evening, and the results remained the same for those who frequently changed their workout timings.
