Are you looking for the magic trick that will help you burn body fat more efficiently, enhance your workouts and enhance your performance? That next best thing that will make it easier to say no to the take-out foods and say yes to your meal prep? Well, my friends, unfortunately that magic trick is one of the hardest things to add in, and that is sleep 2 out of 5 Aussies struggle with sleep on a regular basis. That’s 10.3 million or 40% Australians not sleeping for the recommended 7 to 9 hours. Imagine all those gains left on the table, purely because we’re setting our alarms early for work and still going to bed around midnight! Although, if you find you struggle to fall or sleep, stay asleep or just get good quality sleep, you also aren’t alone and we can help!
If sleep is the magic key to unlocking all new gains, shreds and an entirely new physique, then what better supplement to add in than a sleep aid?! It’s a no brainer fam! Enhance your sleep; enhance your life!
Why is sleep so dang important for gains?
Well, for starters, here is a short list of the impacts lack of sleep has on athletic performance…
-
Inhibited ability. In a study of male team-sport athletes who were sleep-deprived, average and total sprint times decreased.
-
Decreased accuracy. After sleep deprivation, male and female tennis players had decreased serve accuracy of up to 53% when compared to performance after normal sleep.
-
Quicker exhaustion. In a study of male runners and volleyball players, both groups of athletes exhausted faster after sleep deprivation.
-
Decreased reaction time. A lack of sleep adversely affected reaction time in a studied group of male collegiate athletes.
-
Difficulty learning and decision making. Executive functions are impacted by a lack of sleep. Choices such as passing the ball or taking it to the net yourself can be more difficult or made too late.
-
Risk for injury. Research of middle and high school athletes revealed that a chronic lack of sleep is associated with increased rates of injury.
-
Risk for illness or immunosuppression. Poor sleep habits are associated with lower resistance to illness, such as the common cold.
But what about physique-based goals? What about losing body fat and building muscle? Well…
A lack of sleep seems to decrease critical hormones associated with muscle growth such as testosterone and Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 (IGF-1) - while simultaneously increasing hormones that can reduce muscle growth and impede recovery such as cortisol. Depriving yourself of sleep is the perfect storm to ruin them gains you’ve been hustling for!
