Sleep...

[Mr Nobody]

nah...studied till 3:30ish...then made/ate a frozen pizza while watching TV ...ate...n went to bed

i think people that work with thsi brains to make $ need to let it recharge with 8 to 10 hrs of sleep if possible

Yep mental jobs stress you out more therefore more rest required.

If you do not get enough sleep, ever.. life takes on a nightmarish quality.. that’s all I know. Take it from an insomniac - sleep as much as possible.

personally, I am not the same person if I get less than about 8 hours.  If I have to function on much less.. I get irritable, and feel like I cannot think clearly.  I am envious of those that can get by on 5 hours, because for me, with that little sleep I can barely function in a professional capacity. 

im exactly like this. i struggle every fuckin day because my body does not fit into the 'normal' social working hours. cannot go to sleep before 1-2am. waking up any earlier than 9am and im groggy and irritable the rest of the day. need at least 8 hours to feel right.

with no alarm i'll sleep 12 hours easy. That the way i sleep on the weekend. Normally, i try to sleep at least 8 hours, 10 to feel good.

Wiki says that "sleep is a heightened anabolic state" but that deep sleep occurs early on, and the REM later on, so I'm guessing that this deep sleep is more important regarding this "anabolic state". Discuss... Yeah, I know that some fellas here are a bit weary of wiki

Just go with the flow. Try to get at least 5 - 6 hours of quality sleep every day and see what happens. If you're fine, then that's all there is to it. 8 hours is a rule of thumb that doesn't apply to every individual out there. Everyone sleeps different hours at different ages, in different places and so on.

If you are sleeping less than what you need, your body will make you rest for a few hours once in a while, to restore the balance. So no need to over-analyze it or try and force your body into more or less sleep, by making the arbitrary 8 hour number the goal to stick to.

Thanks Kiwiol, I guess that I just have the typical obsessive fitness enthusiast mindset, trying to overanalze every little detail, but I guess that what really matters is results.

I try for 8 but it never happens,I'm a very light sleeper.3 hours without waking is amazing for me

[saopl]

optimal for me is 8-10, but usually stay up late so only get about 6-7.. any less than 6 and I turn into a live zombie.
