And by the way if you win, you will be even happier, so work your butt off and give it all you got!
8. Gymnastics
If you're looking for something a bit more intense than yoga then gymnastics could be a perfect match for you! It's also a great exercise to help you catch those z's quicker overnight, simply because gymnastics allows you to fully stretch your body and work it into exhaustion for a good night's sleep ahead!
9. Boxing
Anyone who knows anything at all about boxing can probably guess that it requires a lot of focus, and as we all know the more you stayed focused on something, the quicker you will get tired as your body starts to feel drained and exhausted. So if you want to catch up on your beauty sleep ASAP, maybe it's time to join a boxing class in your spare time!
10. Weightlifting
Like boxing, weightlifting requires a lot of mental focus. This is because you're putting a physical strain on your body, and the more you lift the more physical pressure you may feel. At the end of the day, our bodies can only cope with so much of this pressure without feeling exhausted, so this is also a great exercise you can rely on for a night of good quality sleep!
So get your fit on so you sleep more sound and feel at your best on a daily basis!
