Deep Sleep and Recovery

Deep Sleep and Recovery

Deep sleep is an important part of your body's recovery after intense workouts. Every change we make to our life whether it be a new job, a new workout routine, new eating habits, or any changes in our body, we need to adapt through our sleep. Most adults want to get 8 to 9 hours of sleep per night.  13% to 23% of that time should be spent in deep sleep.  Most adults get 7 hours, so 55 to 97 minutes of that time should be a deep sleep. 

A huge way to get that deep sleep is by adjusting your bedtime routine. Everyone's circadian rhythm is physical, mental, and behavioral changes that follow a 24-hour cycle.

Some habits to set for a new bedtime routine are: 

1. Have a set bedtime every night

2. Adjust lighting to a low/red lighting before bed

3. Turn off electronics/mentally and digitally detox

4. Take a warm shower

5. Meditation

6. Cool down your sleeping area below 65 degrees

After an intense 8-week challenge to lose weight, it is important your body recovers physically, but also mentally through deep sleep and a healthy bedtime routine.
