Exercise May Cause Insomnia

They say, whoever "they" is today. In the morning you give your metabolism a kick start with exercise. Plus, it's nice to get it over with! If I save it until later, I always have something hanging over my head all day. "I should be exercising - When am I going to do my workout?" The earlier the better works best for me.

I enjoy going to the gym or for a bike ride after work because I'm lazy in the morning (the truth be told, I want to maximize my time in pj's). Plus, I don't like waking up early to exercise, go back home to clean up, and then head out for work. My gym is 5 minutes from the office and it's on the way home with a Whole Foods in the plaza, so there is really no excuse!

Although i really do applaud anyone who can wake up before 12pm and go workout - that is DEFINITELY not for me... I'm not saying that i'm a lazy person (which i actually may be), but i'll take all the sleep i can get in the morning. I'm pretty used to getting off work around 6, going home to have dinner, letting the food digest for a while... and going to the gym (for about 2 hours) at around 9 or 10. With that schedule, i end up going to sleep at around 1 or 2 in the morning.. (hmmm... come to think of it.. my late night exercise could be causing my insomnia)

i go to the gym everyday 5 times a week for and hour of cardio and recently i just cant sleep i go to the gym around 6pm and go to bed around 10.30 pm and i try and get to sleep and i just cant! and when i do get to sleep i wake up straight after. This goes on for about 6- 7 times in the night its terrible just makes me feel so tired! :( any help guys? xx
