It's probably because of bad mattress and/or wrong sleeping position. The best thing you can do is when you wake up in the morning do an easy stretching routine or yoga.

Are you exercising before bed, or throughout the day? That's always a possible reason, I exercise nearly every day and I often wake up sore. I would assume it's because of either strenuous physical activity, or you need a new mattress.

Personally, this happens when I don't get enough sleep or when I'm stressed when I go to sleep in the first place.. What I do to help it- I take warm long showers/baths, listen to music while in the shower and before / during my sleep. Hope this helped!

Usually it has to do with something you did before going to sleep. Like working out, lifting something heavy, pulled a muscle or maybe it's even the position you sleep in

It could be your bed or sleeping position, or possibly your pillow. Try to switch out some of those variables (I.e., if you sleep on your back, get a pillow designed for that).

it's normal. Try to relax during the day and try to do relaxing things before sleeping.

Good question. It is most likely because you slept oddly. If you workout Alot the day before then go to sleep, you might also feel this wake when you wake up.
