Post-exercise sleep increases in athletes remain hypothesis-generating; leaves open effects on recovery or sleep architecture in broader populations.
Sleep recordings were carried out on athletes on four successive nights after completing a 92-kilometer road race. Significant increases in total sleep time and slow-wave sleep were found after this metabolic stress. The results show a definite exercise effect on sleep and support sleep-restoration hypotheses.
