As I grow older, I find the opposite - if I haven't had a physically exhausting day, I need only 6 hours, else max 8 hours. Anything more than this has a negative impact on my mood and health.

That is true for me, too. I used to sleep 9 hours a day when I was in my early 20s, now I cant imagine anything more than 7 hours.

Do either of you do physical exercise or weightlifting?

I used to, not any more in the last 5 years or so. Have to start again - feel quality of sleep was better when I used to exercise.
