ABSTRACT:
Circadian rhythms and exercise physiology share an intricate relationship, yet the full extent of their symbiosis remains to be elucidated. Exercise bestows numerous health benefits, spanning from the cellular level to the entire organism. Concurrently, proper circadian function is increasingly recognized as a cornerstone of overall health maintenance. The positive impact of exercise on health outcomes may, in part, stem from exercise-induced alterations in tissue molecular clocks. Moreover, the timing of exercise could potentially modify its effects. This review offers a concise exploration of circadian biology and the influence of exercise on molecular clocks, with a specific focus on skeletal muscle. Additionally, we propose avenues for future research endeavors aimed at deciphering the mechanistic interplay between exercise and the molecular clock.
