When I started program lifting about a decade ago, one benefit I never really was told about that definitely happened is I fell asleep so much easier. Even though I usually lift mid day, days where I lift or get in some cardio I fall asleep and stay asleep so much better. It can be worth getting in some more physical activity for a lot of reasons, but sleep is one of them too.

that's something I noticed too. I stopped exercising a few months ago and I feel like my sleep has gotten worse. Really gotta get back to it
