Cardio, short for cardiovascular exercise, involves activities that increase your heart rate and improve the efficiency of your cardiovascular system. Engaging in regular cardio exercises such as running, cycling, or swimming can significantly enhance sleep quality. It helps regulate the body's internal clock, reduces stress and anxiety levels, and promotes relaxation, all of which contribute to better sleep. Additionally, cardio exercises can help in reducing sleep onset latency, meaning you can fall asleep faster, and increase the duration of deep sleep phases, leading to more restorative rest.
