Sleep quality may change the same night for those who

exercise for at least 30 minutes at a moderate intensity.

Normally, benefits won't require months or years to manifest.

Additionally, while many studies emphasize aerobic

exercise and sleep, committing to a certain form of exercise

can help maintain sleep quality. For instance, strength

lifting, or an energetic yoga practice can increase heart

rate, promoting the physiological changes in the body and

brain that lead to improved sleep. (John Hopkins Medicine,

2022)
