This is the most optimal time to work out to get the best sleep

« For those who feel more awake and attentive in the evening, training later in the day may not affect sleep. For morning people, exercise in the evening can interfere with the ability to fall asleep and lead to poorer quality of sleep, » he says, according to British media Surrey Live.

« The understanding of your natural sleep-wake patterns can help you decide when it is best to train for not disturbing your night’s sleep, » the expert also reads.

Leon also said that morning training sets a positive tone for the day and can help ‘raise awareness and lead to deeper, more restorative sleep’. The afternoon training is also beneficial as the muscle function is at its highest and you are less at risk of injury.

For evening people, the expert recommends avoiding training too close to bedtime and instead throwing themselves over low -intensity activities such as yoga and extension to help the body relax.

« Be careful not to exercise too close to bedtime as intense exercise increases the heart rate, body temperature and adrenaline levels, which can make it harder for the body to gear down, » he warns.

« Although some studies suggest that exercise later in the evening does not necessarily affect sleep negatively, research shows that training within an hour before bed can reduce sleep efficiency and lead to longer waking periods after sleeping. »

So what kinds of exercise in the daytime are best for improving sleep?

« Although both strength training and fitness training have benefits, it is the intensity and time of training that makes the biggest difference, » says Leon.

In addition, he suggests activities such as boxing and high-intensity interval training (HIIT) as they reduce stress by lowering cortisol levels and releasing so-called feel-good hormones such as endorphins, serotonin and dopamine.
