<p>when it comes to exercise, low repetition, high intensity heavy lifting (compound exercises like bench press, dips, chin-ups, deadlifting, squatting, etc) seems to trip up "natural" fatigue and a "cycle" of sleep to the human body...people I know do this and have the same thing happen and they sleep very very well...it's endurance exercise, i.e. more than 20 min continuous exercise, that wakes us up...</p>

I have some trouble with a couple of these. I normally try to read myself sleepy after I go to bed, and lately I have been doing a couple of Yoga exercises (not strenuous) recommended for insomnia. No caffeine after lunch is new (I thought after ca. 4 pm was enough), so I'll try to do that. Of course getting rid of worry is the big one -- how to turn off your brain! Also, don't go to bed if not sleepy is logical, but in practice hard to follow, particularly in combination with a regular routine.
