DON'T COMPROMISE YOUR PERFORMANCE WITH POOR SLEEP
When it comes to optimizing your performance, it's not just about quantity of sleep that matters; it the quality of sleep. Quality sleep goes well beyond recovering from workouts and athletic events. Your actual performance gets compromised from poor sleep. In fact, the actual performance of your body and mind can be significantly compromised when you don't get the restorative sleep you need.
The Role of Growth Hormone in Sleep
Consider the role of growth hormone. Intense exercise naturally boosts the production of growth hormone in your body. However, what many people don't realize is that approximately 75% of this hormone's production actually occurs during deep sleep. That means if you're not getting high-quality sleep, you could be missing out on a substantial part of the recovery and performance-boosting benefits of growth hormone.
TIPS FOR ACHIEVING OPTIMAL SLEEP
Here are some practical tips to help you achieve the optimal quality of sleep:
1) AVOID CAFFEINE BEFORE BED
The last thing you want is caffeine in your system from that late afternoon iced coffee.
2) DIM YOUR LIGHTS AN HOUR BEFORE BED
When your lights are super bright, they interfere with the secretion of hormones that help you sleep.
3) DO 5-10 MINS OF STRETCHING BEFORE BED
This can help your body shift into a more parasympathetic state.
4) WEAR POWER SLEEP PATCHES!
Wearing Power Sleep patches nightly will promote a deeper, more restorative sleep every night without the grogginess.
These patches are magic!
"My wife and I both have trouble staying asleep and we’ve tried everything. THESE PATCHES ARE MAGIC! I’ve never slept better since I started using them." - Joe Perry
