Researchers from the University of Tsukuba find that vigorous exercise causes imperceptible improvements in sleep quality

In a study published this month in Scientific Reports, researchers from the University of Tsukuba have revealed that vigorous exercise was able to modulate various sleep parameters associated with improved sleep, without affecting subjective reports regarding sleep quality.
