The Importance of Sleep for Recovery & Results
Sleep is one of the most underrated tools for recovery, performance, and body composition.
Sleep & Muscle Recovery
Most muscle repair and growth hormone release happens during deep sleep. Consistently poor sleep can blunt training adaptations and slow recovery between sessions.
Sleep & Appetite Regulation
Poor sleep disrupts hunger hormones (ghrelin and leptin), often leading to increased cravings and calorie intake the following day.
Tips for Better Sleep
Aim for 7-9 hours per night, keep a consistent sleep schedule, limit screens before bed, and keep your bedroom cool and dark.
