There are people who choose to exercise before going to bed, just to rest better. But what practices are most beneficial? According to experts of DIR centers, what we should exclude is medium-high intensity physical activity before going to sleep, because it alters the nervous system and can prevent quality sleep. “Exercise benefits us and is good when it comes to falling asleep. But I recommend if the physical activity is aerobic or of medium-high intensity, trying to do it at least three hours before going to bed, so that the body has time to relax and sleep well afterwards. The ideal thing in my opinion is to use stretches, limbs and torso. Also, breathing exercises, twisting for the spine, because this will really help the body to stretch and relax the muscles to sleep better “, says personal trainer Gemy Osorio Astorga, alma mater of the Madrid Pilates and Circulation center.
