Sleep

 <-Back to Med

  • Normally 6 to 8 hours of sleep is needed to feel refreshed both physically and mentally.
  • When we workout, we break our body internally.  The part of the body we break (on a minute level) depends on what kind of exercise we did.
    • Micro tears in our muscles, ligaments and tendons
    • Micro fractures in our bones
  • When working out, 8 hours minimum is needed to be sure that we are healing properly.  Else when we workout next time we would have a risk of injury.
  • When body goes through extreme stress, it'll sometimes need even 10 hours of sleep.  It's normal to sleep more when doing intense workouts until the body gets used to it.
  • Symptoms of lack of sleep
    • Emotional mood swings
    • Overpowering pessimism and negative thoughts.  Life looks and feels full of doom and gloom (once we get good sleep this goes away and we are back to normal)
    • Injury or body pains not healing
    • Brain to body coordination won't be good, so we make
      • more mistakes
      • More chances of getting hurt by falling or hitting our hand/head somewhere, etc
