It is a misconception that exercise before sleep keeps you alert and you may not be able to sleep. It differs from person to person and depends on the level of exercise also. Generally light or moderate exercise should not affect any one.If you are a person who does rigorous exercise, try to keep your room cool and dimly lit after the exercise. Also follow some routine like listening to mild music, etc. to make you sleep comfortably. The main rule that has to be remembered is not to exercise on a full stomach. So, if you want to exercise before sleep, make sure you have your dinner 2-3 hours in advance so that you will be light when exercising.
