Slow-wave sleep: a recovery period after exercise

CM Shapiro, R Bortz, D Mitchell, P Bartel, and P Jooste

Sleep recordings were carried out on athletes on four successive nights after completing a 92-kilometer road race. Significant increases in total sleep time and slow-wave sleep were found after this metabolic stress. The results show a definite exercise effect on sleep and support sleep-restoration hypotheses.
