""In general, individuals who went to bed earlier engaged in more frequent and longer physical activity per day than those who habitually went to bed later.""
""The biggest difference in next-day activity was between people who typically slept 5 hours a night, on average, and those who averaged 9 hours.""
A recent study shows that individuals who go to bed earlier typically engage in more moderate-to-vigorous physical activity the following day. The research, conducted between 2021 and 2022, found that short sleepers (average 5 hours) increased their physical activity duration by over 41 minutes compared to those who sleep around 9 hours. This suggests that better rest may enhance physical activity levels, and earlier bedtimes could provide more time for exercise, hinting at a positive correlation between sleep habits and health.
