Should You Exercise In The Morning Or Evening? Deepika Padukone's Trainer Weighs In

For anyone trying to stay fit, finding time to exercise often feels like the biggest workout of all. Between work meetings, social plans, and family responsibilities, sticking to a consistent routine can be challenging. And amid all the wellness advice flooding social media, one debate never seems to end – what's the best time to exercise: morning or evening?

Celebrity fitness trainer Yasmin Karachiwala, who has shaped the physiques of stars like Deepika Padukone, Katrina Kaif, Alia Bhatt, and Preity Zinta, recently reignited the conversation. She asked her followers a simple but relatable question: “Are you team Morning or team Evening?"

According to Yasmin, there's no universal ‘best' time to work out. It's about what fits you. Morning workouts appeal to early risers who enjoy starting their day on an energising note. Exercising first thing can boost mood, metabolism, and mental clarity. But for others, evenings are when their body feels warmer, stronger, and more flexible, making strength or endurance workouts more effective.

Food timing is another key factor. Some prefer training on an empty stomach, while others need a light pre-workout meal for an energy lift. And then there's environment – some thrive in the hustle of a busy gym, others focus better in quieter spaces. Yasmin's take: it's about listening to your body's rhythm, not forcing it into someone else's routine.

What truly defines success, Yasmin insists, is consistency. Whether it's 6 a.m. Pilates or a 7 p.m. spin class, regularity beats perfection. “The best time is whenever you can stay consistent and enjoy it," she emphasises. Her approach, honed over decades of training Bollywood's fittest, prioritises longevity over quick fixes. Workouts are tailored not just for aesthetics but for balance by improving posture, flexibility, and mental wellness alongside strength.

For those still caught between sunrise runs and post-work gym sessions, Yasmin's advice offers freedom: stop overthinking the clock. What matters most is that your workout feels sustainable and enjoyable.

In a world obsessed with trends, her philosophy cuts through the noise. Fitness isn't about finding the perfect hour; it's about showing up, every day, in whatever hour works for you.
