Sometimes I don't sleep as well after I go jogging 3-4 miles. I usually jog in the afternoon and have a span of 5-6 hours before I go to sleep. I've noticed a few times I struggled going to sleep on the same days I jogged. Maybe I should try for an earlier workout.
I agree- I was surprised the evidence showed 60-90 minutes because I do not sleep well with afternoon or evening workouts, or rather I fall asleep later. If your schedule can do it, try switching it up and seeing if that jog in the morning and give you a little burst of energy for a large portion of your day 🤷♀️ or try some chamomile tea or lavender on the days you jog to help promote sleep
Great advice Doctor! Routine can be such a wonderful thing. These are all helpful tips to help wind down for the night.

Creating good sleep hygiene habits is really important!
Yes and starting young when possible!

@@HealthyFamilyDoc I'll give it a try. That chamomile tea doesn't sound like a bad idea either!
