EARLY MORNING WALK
The benefits of morning walks are no secret. If
you are someone who does not mind waking up
early, do not hesitate to tie your laces and go
for an early morning walk. 
The researchers at Harvard analyzed the
weight-promoting genes in 12k people and found
that the morning walks effectively curtailed the
effects of these genes by 50. Candidates who
took an early morning walk were able to
counteract the 12 weight-promoting genes.

advantage in relieving arthritis pain. When
people regularly walk every morning, their joint
muscles get stronger, providing better support to
the bone. Regular movement also helps to
lubricate the joints keeping them functioning
properly.

Drawbacks of Early Morning Walk

• There are no disadvantages of morning walk as
  such. However, when compared with the evening or
  afternoon walk, timing can be a bit tricky. 
• It is not always feasible for people to walk
  alone in the early morning. It can either be too
  dark or too unsafe for an early morning walk. You
  may also not be able to walk during freezing
  temperatures. These factors have to be taken into
  consideration for a morning walk. 
• Another challenge you can face while taking an
  early morning walk is the stiffness of muscles.
  The body temperature and blood pressure are at
  their lowest in the morning. Hence, you may want
  to warm up your body before doing a higher-speed
  workout.

Benefits of an Evening Walk
While a morning walk is a great way to start your
day, an evening walk can be a great way to
relieve body stress after a long day of work.

Drawbacks of an Evening Walk

• The only drawback of the evening walking in the
  night hours. It can be dark and unsafe to walk
  during the evening time at times. The traffic can
  be at its peak. Therefore, you may want to take
  precautions accordingly.
• At times, the day can be tiring and stressful
  demotivating you to continue the workout. Thus,
  it may not be possible to keep your evening walk
  consistent. When you work out intensely during
  the nighttime, it can disrupt your sleep. In this
  case, decrease your walking speed and schedule it
  early.
