The best way to get your body tired and ready for sleep is to do intense workouts at the right time of day. sleep kettlebellThis means that doing cardio workouts and lifting weights in the afternoon or at night increases your chance at having a good night’s sleep.

If you plan on doing cardio, make sure you are going for a full session and not a half session workout. If there is a cycling class going on it is good to stay for the full amount of time. When going for a run, be sure to run for at least 45 minutes. Doing this each day will tire the body out and thus allow no room for energy to keep insomniacs awake.

Lifting weights, such as dumbbells, can be used for a lot of different exercises. Bicep curls are a good way to get started. You can do bicep curls either standing up or sitting down.

The weight is strategically at the base of these exercise tools, so people can do different exercises with them. Lifting enthusiasts can still do bicep curls, but what they can also do is a Russian Kettlebell Swing. This widely known exercise works the shoulders, lower back, hips and quads in one swing. Doing this exercise is sure to tire you out quickly.
