A recent study from the University of Florida Health indicates that the timing and consistency of daily activities may be linked to improved cardiorespiratory fitness in older adults. Researchers found that those who engaged in physical activity earlier in the day showed better heart and lung fitness compared to those with irregular schedules. Although the study highlights the significance of when individuals are active, further research is needed to establish causality and understand if these findings can apply to younger demographics as well.
The study found that older adults with earlier and more consistent daily activity patterns had better heart and lung fitness compared with those with later or more irregular schedules.
While we've long known that being active supports healthy aging, this study reveals that when you're active may also matter, according to Karyn Esser, Ph.D.
