Purpose To investigate the effect of early evening exercise training at different intensities on nocturnal sleep and cardiac autonomic activity in endurance-trained runners. Methods Eight runners completed three experimental trials in a randomised, counterbalanced order. In the early evening (end of exercise 3.5 h before bedtime), participants performed either: (i) a 1 h high-intensity interval running session (HIGH, 6 x 5 min at 90% VO2peak interspersed with 5 min recovery); (ii) a 1 h low-intensity running session (LOW, 60 min at 45% VO2peak) or (iii) no exercise (CON). Subsequent nocturnal sleep was assessed using polysomnography, wristwatch actigraphy, and subjective sleep quality. A two-lead electrocardiogram recorded nocturnal cardiac autonomic activity. Results Total sleep time increased after HIGH (477.4 +/- 17.7 min, p = 0.022) and LOW (479.6 +/- 15.6 min, p = 0.006) compared with CON (462.9 +/- 19.0 min). Time awake was lower after HIGH (31.8 +/- 18.5 min, p = 0.047) and LOW (30.4 +/- 15.7 min, p = 0.008) compared with CON (46.6 +/- 20.0 min). There were no differences between conditions for actigraphy and subjective sleep quality (p > 0.05). Nocturnal heart rate variability was not different between conditions, but average nocturnal heart rate increased after HIGH (50 +/- 5 beats min(-1)) compared with LOW (47 +/- 5 beats min(-1), p = 0.02) and CON (47 +/- 5 beats min(-1), p = 0.028). Conclusion When performed in the early evening, high-intensity exercise does not disrupt and may even improve subsequent nocturnal sleep in endurance-trained runners, despite increased cardiac autonomic activity. Additionally, low-intensity exercise induced positive changes in sleep behaviour that are comparable to those obtained following high-intensity exercise.
