Daily Weight Loss Tips

Accoring to a study, better fitness leads to better sleep. 175 postmenopausal, overweight or obese, sedentary women were enrolled in a year-long exercise program - half of them in a moderate-intensity exercise, and the other half in low-intensity stretching.

An increase of 10% or greater in the fitness level (the Oxygen Consumption test) was associated with longer sleep duration and less use of sleep medication.

Stretchers were also less likely to use sleep medication and have trouble falling asleep than baseline. Basically, both groups of exercisers had better sleep at the end of the study.

Interestingly, the study also found that evening exercise can lead to troubles falling asleep, while morning exercisers were falling asleep more easily.

So for best sleep, exercise in the morning.
