Exercise the Morning After Poor Sleep
If you only slept poorly for one night, still do your workout the next morning rather than skipping exercise altogether. Keep the session lighter if needed and avoid pushing so hard that it interferes with the following night’s sleep. This can help blunt some of the short-term effects of sleep loss, including impaired brain performance, inflammation, insulin resistance, and blood glucose disruption.

“exercise can help basically negate a lot of that... it really does help negate the inflammation and the insulin insensitivity that can happen after even just a single night of sleep.”
