Windzal Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 (edited) Why you don't want to sleep when you exercise in the evening? When you exercise, body temperature rises, so the melatonin decreases and you don't want to sleep, yeah? I think that rise in body temperature wakes you up, but, on the other hand, rise in the body temperature denature proteins.. I know that Dopamine can directly inhibit production and release of a molecule, melatonin, that induces drowsiness and prepares the body for sleep, but does endorphin? Does exercise increase dopamine or endorphin? The general question would be:What does make you want to sleep? And what does make you not want to sleep? Exactly.Thanks.

Its said that sleeping gets your blood rushing and your heart going so you are more awake. So its said to not be a very good thing when you are about to go to bed. Some suggest taking a warm shower and that often seems to put people to sleep. Its also needed if you just had an intense work out. Though from my personal experience I usually was so exhausted after a work out I was ready to go home and just pass out. Though I would often work out to a point I could no longer move and just could not go anymore. http://health.howstuffworks.com/mental-health/sleep/basics/how-to-fall-asleep1.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkadm30 Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 Does exercise increase dopamine or endorphin? Yes. Exercise stimulate dopamine neurotransmission through calmodulin-dependent pathways in the brain: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12758062 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
