Sample of one, but I find gentle exercise in evening (like walking) isn't a problem. A moderate-to-intense run in the evening does affect my sleep, though.


> gentle exercise in evening (like walking)

I don't disagree with this but even walking 4mph @ 87°dewpoint = ⅔ soaked, which feels not gentle. Actual intense exercise in that mug might kill us however.

Oddly, I've used short strenuous workouts to combat severe insomnia. More pain is better. It helps when panic is the driver but not for sleep=broken events.


That’s fair, I didn’t think about climates actively hostile to “gentle” exercise :)
