Similarly, I have found that every hour of exercise removes the need to sleep about an hour, to a certain point. Unlike you, though, several hours a week of exercise brings my nightly need to sleep down to 8 from 9-10!
- hiyer 6y agoI think it may depend on how strenuous the exercise is rather than the duration, but I have a similar observation. I normally sleep 6-6.5 hours at night. When I did p90x (45-60 minute sessions) a few years back, I would usually be wide awake after 5 hours. I suspect this is because I sleep really deeply when tired - I remember most of those nights sleeping dreamlessly.
