Rebecca Krukowski, PhD
Professor Rebecca Krukowski, PhD, in the Department of Public Health Sciences, was quoted in a CNN article about best time to exercise for weight loss. The article shares information about a recent study in the journal Obesity which indicates exercising between 7-9 a.m. has been associated with having a lower waist circumference and body mass index than for individuals who work out midday or evening. Dr. Krukowski, a psychologist and researcher studying evidence-based behavioral interventions for adults in order to reduce cancer risk, states, “This is exciting new research that is consistent with a common tip for meeting exercise goals — that is, schedule exercise in the morning before emails, phone calls or meetings that might distract you.”
