Reply to comment by redbucket75 in Research shows that people in good physical shape are less likely to need a sleeping pill prescription. The beneficial effect of exercise is stronger for men, who have a 15% lower risk of needing drugs for troublesome sleep issues but also women can benefit from it by giuliomagnifico

That’s awesome. I also do wonder if people who sleep better exercise more?

I usually work out 6 days a week. If I skip a day I have trouble falling asleep and have irregular bowel movement.

Between exercise and heavy manual labor I am up before the birds and asleep within three seconds of hitting the pillow. Since I was a kid.

I love exercising but I am much less likely to do it if I haven’t slept well, maybe a self perpetuating cycle
