Default Fitness: Running Before Bed

IF I go for a one mile run after poker tonight, will it be worthwhile in temrs of weight loss? Will it keep me up late?

I used to do this. I lost a bunch of weight. Just don't take any pills like aspirin or whatever before going to bed unless you plan on eating because those things will eat through your stomach and you will be hurting in the morning.

I think there may be something to running before bed time because I think the body looks for energy to burn and with nearly nothing in your stomach, it burns the extra fat on you.

Say what?

I'm not exactly sure what you're even asking here Maulik [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img].

Are you talking about...playing poker late, then running for a quick mile and then trying to go straight to sleep? I think goign to sleep after that would be difficult.

This has more to do with running on an empty stomach than running before bed. It just happens most people haven't eaten in quite a while when they go to bed.

Ideally, to burn weight you'd do it after waking up b/c your body won't be in such a starved state later in the day.

if you can run a mile then you dont need to lose weight. anyway brisk walking is better for you as running will come back to haunt you later in life if you do too much.

I don't see how this can be true at all. I'm certainly overweight and can easily run a mile.

just out of curiousity, when was the last time you tried? many people who don't run regularly overestimate their ability.

A mile is not far at all. If you can't run a mile you're in seriously poor shape. I've let myself get overwI ran today for the first time in months and did a slow 3.
