What's your opinion on exercising late or shortly before bed?

I've got some places to go afterwork tonight...and I really want to get my workout in...but wouldn't be able to do so until later in the evening. Not sure if that's a good idea or not.

    Why do you think it is not a good idea?

    All depnds on the person. Some people it amps them up and cannot sleep, some people it puts to sleep.

    For me personally, if I work out 2 hours before bedtime I have sleep issues, but if I run later after dark and then go to bed then I am good. It is almost like for about an hour afterwards I get tired but around that two hour mark I get re energized!
