While workouts often receive the most attention, sleep is equally critical for recovery, performance, and overall well-being,” said consultant dietitian and fitness expert Garima Goyal.From a clinical perspective, sleep and exercise have a bidirectional relationship. “Regular physical activity has been shown to improve sleep quality by helping people fall asleep faster, increasing deep sleep, and supporting the body’s natural circadian rhythm. In turn, adequate sleep enhances muscle recovery, tissue repair, cognitive function, immune health, and hormonal balance, allowing individuals to perform better during subsequent workouts,” said Goyal.

Poor sleep may also impair insulin sensitivity, elevate cortisol levels, and make it more challenging to lose weight or maintain a healthy body composition despite regular exercise,” mentioned Goyal. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Taapsee Pannu (@taapsee)For healthy adults, experts generally recommend 7 to 9 hours of quality sleep each night, along with a consistent sleep schedule, limited screen exposure before bedtime, and avoiding heavy meals, caffeine, or intense exercise close to bedtime if these interfere with sleep.Also Read | How Dia Mirza stays fit: Trainer Kunal Vijay More reveals her workout and diet secretsTaapsee’s routine reinforces an important message. “Fitness is not built in the gym alone.
