: Increased body heat after workout when in bed I am little overweight, 120 kg, from India. When I go to bed after a workout in the gym, say for 30 minutes, I can't sleep as my body begins to heat up. Are there any remedies?

When you work out, your heart rate rises and your metabolism reaches a higher rate. After I workout, my metabolic rate remains quite high for over an hour, so I cannot work out effectively in the evening and then go to bed (my problem is that it makes me very alert, the heat is less of an issue in Scotland:-)

So my solution is to work out first thing in the morning - this also gives me a boosted start to the day. See if you can change your workout time to the morning - it may make all the difference you need.
