Quick post just before I pack up and go to sleep…
Getting enough sleep can really help improve your results with both fat loss and muscle building. Sleeping is when your body repairs and recovers from what ever you may have put it through during the day.
If you are trying to build muscle, when you are sleeping is when the majority of the repair and growth of your muscles will occur. Not getting enough sleep can affect your results. If you are notgiving your body enough of this ‘rest time’, it can even lead to over training, which can have negative affects on your body.
Also lack of sleep can seriously affect your energy levels, making a huge difference to your training, and even your motivation to train.
You should be aiming to get at least 8 hours sleep each night, this is what the body needs to fully recover from the previous days activities.
Well that’s me done for the night, i’m off to get my full 8 hours! Night everyone!
