Sleep. ⁣
——⁣
Athletes typically overlook the importance of sleep and the role it plays in training. It is of the utmost importance to prioritize sleep as it plays a vital role in our recovery. There is almost nothing as important when it comes to recovery.⁣⁣
——⁣
Matthew Walker, Ph.D. on a study on athletes, “one of the most surprising factors there was injury risk [...] it's a perfect linear relationship the less sleep that you have [the] higher your injury risk [,] so people getting 9 hours versus 5 hours there was almost a 60% increase in probability of injury risk”⁣.⁣
——⁣
If you are not utilizing sleep and are instead disregarding it, you may be missing out on some serious gains. ⁣
