PHYSICAL FRIDAY #24 - Sleep - One Of The Key Pillars Of Health

Something I have often disregarded and, I think is probably one of the most commonly sacrificed pillars of health, is sleep. The more I have learned about sleep recently, the more I have been concerned and aware of my sleeping habits and I believe that will be true for you as well. If you learn more about the benefits and advantages of sleep, you might begin to be wary of how much you are sleeping.

I highly recommend Why We Sleep by Matthew Walker as a book recommendation, and if you’d rather listen to a podcast then I would say check out #1109 Joe Rogan Experience with Matthew Walker. Both the book and podcast are by Matthew Walker and he cites some incredible research to show you how important sleep is.

If you are wanting to make advancements in training, wanting to do better in the workplace, or wanting to encourage your kids in their school and sporting activities, you should look into Matthew Walker. If you look into it more and want to continue this conversation please email me podcast@saltwaterexperience.com.
