Yes! I usually do HIIT three times a week first thing in the morning. All morning at work, I feel great, lots of energy, can think clearly. All afternoon, I am incapable of doing any work requiring actual thought. I have learned to schedule all important work in the mornings. I didn't make the connection though until I read your post - this started the same time that I started doing HIIT.
