Sure, if you can sleep.
- tachyonbeam 6y agoFor those of us who are working from home right now, sleeping is easier than ever.
- mancerayder 6y agoInsomnia is pretty high on the list of pandemic lockdown issues at the moment, not to mention burnout symptoms. Some people I know can sleep sitting on a plane, and others can scarcely sleep at night, horizontal, in a quiet room, on a soft bed.
- yters 6y agoA hard workout, waking up early and avoiding caffeine help me a lot with insomnia.
- Rapzid 6y agoA "hard" workout. A hard workout can send cortisol through the roof and there will be little sleep.
- tachyonbeam 6y agoThe half-life of cortisol is very short (comparable to that of cocaine): "The plasma clearance of cortisol is rapid, with a half-life of 66 min at normal hormone levels. With large steroid loads, however, the half-life increases to 120 min." If you work out in the morning or afternoon, avoid working ~3-4 hours before bed, you should be able to sleep just fine.
- yters 6y agoDepends on the timing of the workout, but speaking from personal experience an all day hike is perfect for generating a deep, restful night's sleep.
