Sleep deficiencies have both long term and short term impacts on your health. And while sleep is one of the most fundamental ways to improve our health and well being, it is also one of the easiest to overlook. In our modern world, full of endless entertainment and information, 33% of American Adults get less than 6.5 hour of sleep per night. As you'll learn in this week's Health & Fitness Friday mini-pod, habitual sleeplessness has both short and long term effects that are universally negative.
Today's mini-pod was inspired by a recent blog from Precision Nutrition, which you can find here - https://www.precisionnutrition.com/all-about-sleep
The original post is FULL of information on how sleep relates to body composition, the concept of "sleep debt" and more.
I would love to hear from our listeners why Health & Fitness topics matter to YOU and what you would love to learn more about on future Health & Fitness Friday Podcasts. The best way to do this is to send us a message via Instagram, where you can find the podcast @essential.strength.podcast
Hope you all find this episode valuable and that you GET SOME SLEEP this weekend!
